Division of Pediatric Urology, Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, 3333 Burnet Avenue, Cincinnati, OH 45229-3039, USA.

 

Transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder is extremely rare in the first decade of life. We present the case of a 5-year-old male with gross hematuria found to have high-grade transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder. To our knowledge this is the first such reported case in this age group.
