RESUMEN

Bladder cancers rarely are non-urothelial in origin. We present here, possibly the youngest case of a 35-year-old White female presenting with shortness of breath. She was found to have a malignant pleural effusion with unknown primary, eventually confirmed with genetic testing as metastatic adenocarcinoma of the urinary bladder with brain and lung metastasis. She was scheduled for palliative chemotherapy, however, passed away before it could be started. We highlight this rare case because of its unique presentation. Owing to similarity in receptors between adenocarcinoma and enteric cancer, similar chemotherapy regimens may be used for both. Unfortunately, treatment of metastatic disease remains highly controversial and needs to be studied further if there is an actual survival benefit to this or not.
