[Multiple Pulmonary Metastases Seven Years After Transurethral Bladder Tumor Resection for Non-muscle Invasion Bladder Cancer:Report of a Case].

A 64-year-old man was admitted because of multiple pulmonary nodules in right upper lobe on chest computed tomography (CT). He had non-muscle invasion bladder cancer resected by transurethral bladder tumor resection seven years ago. Partial resections of the right upper lobe were carried out at the video assisted thracoscopic surgery (VATS) for diagnostic purposes. The postoperative pathological examination revealed featuraes of pulmonary metastasis of bladder cancer. Although chemotherapy after biopsy was performed, a residual tumor in right S3 has grown. Partial resection of residual tumor was carried out thracoscopically and the tumor was diagnosed as metastasis of bladder cancer. He has been without recurrence for 1 year after the operation.
