Abstract

Mucin secreting adenocarcinoma of the gall bladder is rare. Although it has propensity to metastasise, urinary metastasis is extremely unusual. We report a case with mucin secreting adenocarcinoma of the gall bladder with metastasis to the urinary bladder. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of its kind in the literature.
