Abstract
We present 11 specimens from 2 patients with transitional cell carcino ma metastatic to the cerebrospinal fluid. This is a rare occurrence do cumented in one previous report in which 5 patients had 28 specimens r eviewed (Ehya et al., Acta Cytol 1981;25:599-610). Cytologic features that most likely indicate a bladder origin are the cytoplasmic tails a nd cytoplasmic pseudopod formation. (C) 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
