We report a case of transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder metastasizing to bilateral adrenal glands without other metastasis. A 47-year-old male underwent total cystectomy due to bladder cancer (TCC, G2, pT2) in 1992. One year later, CT scan showed a large tumor in the right adrenal gland. Right adrenalectomy revealed metastatic transitional cell carcinoma. He underwent 3 courses of M-VAC postoperatively. However, one year after the second operation, left adrenal tumor was detected by CT. Because there was no apparent metastasis other than the adrenal gland, left adrenalectomy was performed and the tumor was transitional cell carcinoma of grade 3. He was discharged from the hospital after 2 courses of CISCA chemotherapy, and has been doing well without evidence of recurrence for two years, being supported by the adrenocortical steroids.
