Carcinoma of the Bladder in the Second Decade

Urothelial Neoplasms of the Urinary Bladder Occurring in Young Adult and Pediatric Patients

“…When additional data from 20 case reports were included for group 1 patients, few (2%) grade 3 tumors were reported but overall still remained predominantly low grade. [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57] In contrast, Migaldi et al 5 reported in elderly patients (mean, 70.2±8.4 y) incidences for grades 1, 2, and 3 bladder urothelial carcinomas of 13%, 51%, and 36%, respectively. This distribution in elderly patients had fewer grade 1 and as expected had more grade 3/or high-grade tumors when compared with patients in their fourth decades of life only.…”
