We review a case of a 70-year-old male with a recurrence of urothelial carcinoma in an ileal neobladder without involvement of the remaining urothelium two years after a radical cystoprostatectomy. This case is extremely rare especially due to the lack of recurrence in the urethra or upper urinary tract.
