Urothelial Carcinoma in a 17-year-old Boy / 대한비뇨기과학회지

ABSTRACT

Urothelial neoplasms in patients younger than 20 years old are extremely rare, and there is no established etiology, treatment guidelines, or surveillance for urothelial carcinoma in the pediatric population. A 17-year-old boy who presented with gross hematuria showed a smooth, round mass on the left lateral wall of the urinary bladder on cystoscopy. Histologic examination showed low grade papillary urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder without muscle layer invasion. We report a case of papillary urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder in a pediatric patient treated with transurethral resection.
