Sažetak
Primary malignant melanoma of the urinary bladder is rare, with only 20 cases reported to date. We present a case of an 87-year-old woman with multiple comorbidities who presented with advanced urinary bladder neoplasm. Histopathologic analysis suggested melanoma of the urinary bladder. No previous or concurrent diagnosis of cutaneous melanoma was documented. The patient underwent transurethral resection of the tumor before and during hospitalization at our hospital but died shortly after due to widespread disease. Autopsy was not performed.
