Abstract：
:Of 293 patients with transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder seen at our institution between April 1977 and December 1987, 9 patients were found to have brain metastasis. Seven of 9 patients were found to have a solitary brain lesion, and in 4 of these, no other site of metastatic disease was identified. Five patients received palliative whole brain irradiation, 3,000 cGy in 10 fractions, due to the presence of multiple lesions of the central nervous system (CNS) or metastases to other sites. The average survival for this group was seven weeks. One patient with a solitary brain metastasis and no other documented metastatic site was hospitalized at another institution, and was managed expectantly receiving only parenteral steroid therapy and survived four weeks. Three patients with solitary lesions and no evidence of other metastatic sites were treated with a combined surgical and radiotherapeutic approach receiving 4,000-5,000 cGy to the lesion site postoperatively. The average survival of that group was twenty-nine months, with one five-year survivor and 1 patient with no evidence of disease fourteen months after treatment. It appears that survival is longer in those patients with solitary lesions, perhaps due, at least in part, to a more aggressive therapeutic approach.
