Abstract
Оbjective is to evaluate the rate of bladder cancer in children and adolescents, characteristics of its histological variant, and treatment approaches.
Materials and methods. A review of international literature on the problem of bladder cancer in children and adolescents as well as our own clinical observations of this pathology in 7 male patients aged 5–17 years in the period from 2012 to 2017 are presented.
Results. According to the literature data and our own clinical observations, bladder cancer in children and adolescents is a rare pathology and it is a well-differentiated transitional cell carcinoma, localized, with favorable prognosis and rare recurrence. Treatment approach for bladder cancer in children and adolescents is the same as in adults, and usually is limited to transurethral resection of the bladder tumor.
Conclusion. These observations serve as a reminder that bladder cancer can occur in children and adolescents, as well as in adults, which should elevate oncological vigilance among general practitioners.
