## TL;DR

This paper reports a rare case of bladder metastasis from endometrial cancer successfully treated with surgery and multidisciplinary care.

## Contribution

The novelty lies in presenting a rare clinical case of bladder metastasis from endometrial cancer and its successful treatment approach.

## Key findings

- Bladder metastasis from endometrial cancer is extremely rare, with only four cases reported before 2024.
- The case was successfully managed with robot-assisted radical cystectomy and multidisciplinary treatment.
- This case highlights the importance of considering bladder metastasis in endometrial cancer follow-up.

## Abstract

Malignant tumors metastasizing to the bladder are uncommon, and bladder metastasis from uterine cancer is particularly rare. Several cases of bladder metastasis from malignant melanoma, gastric cancer, breast cancer, and renal cancer have been documented. However, to our knowledge, only four cases of bladder metastasis from endometrial cancer had been reported up until 2024. Here, we present a case of bladder metastasis of endometrial cancer following modified radical hysterectomy, which was successfully treated through multidisciplinary intervention.
