Zusammenfassung:Although treated appropriately, bladder cancer can recur and metastasize. We are reporting the case of a patient with a well‐cured bladder cancer who presented after 14 months with femoral pain which turned out to be a bony metastasis. The patient underwent surgical excision followed by chemotherapy. Secondary bone metastases from a primary transitional carcinoma in the bladder are very rare. In this case, we present a femoral metastasis from a primary urothelial carcinoma in the bladder that had been successfully treated 14 months earlier.
