High-grade urothelial carcinoma of the bladder is rare in the pediatric population with no established guidelines for management. We treated a single female patient, 10 years of age, who was found to have high-grade, nonmuscle invasive urothelial carcinoma endoscopically and with intravesical bacille calmette guerin (BCG). Given the child's age, no local adult institution could provide BCG therapy. Utilizing the experience of the local adult institutions, we developed a comprehensive protocol for first-time delivery of BCG at a free-standing children's hospital. The patient has undergone successful induction and maintenance BCG for 7 cycles without disease recurrence and minimal side effects.
