Primary signet-ring cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder is an exceedingly rare entity associated with poor prognosis. Thus, it is essential to distinguish this carcinoma from gastrointestinal metastases, as different therapeutic strategies are often necessary. We report the case of a 23 year old female patient with primary signet-ring cell carcinoma of the bladder that invades the pelvic wall and treated with partial cystectomy and adjuvant chemotherapy. No metastatic spread or recurrence was detected in the patient after 12 months of follow-up. To our knowledge, this is the first youngest female patient reported in the English literature.
