ABSTRACT
We report a case of a 66-year-old male with T2 American Spinal Injury Association Impairment Scale (AIS) A paraplegia who presented to Urology with worsening autonomic dysreflexia. Work-up identified a bladder mass treated by transurethral resection and pathologically confirmed as melanoma. Additional work-up revealed metastatic melanoma to the back and brain. The patient completely recovered with no evidence of disease more than two years after completing therapy. In this report, we review the presentation of metastatic bladder melanoma presenting with autonomic dysreflexia, which has never been previously described, and discuss the prognosis of metastatic melanoma to the bladder.
