Bladder cancer is a rare disease in childhood; however, it is one of great clinical significance. Investigation and management follow a tailored approach, which is largely driven by clinical practice patterns in adult patients with the disease. We present the case of bladder cancer in a boy who presented to the primary care practitioner with visible haematuria. This case highlights the need for clinicians to consider malignancy as a possible cause for haematuria when assessing and investigating children with this presenting complaint.
膀胱癌在儿童时期是一种罕见疾病;然而,它具有重大的临床意义。其诊断和治疗遵循一种量身定制的方法,这在很大程度上是由成年膀胱癌患者的临床实践模式所驱动的。我们报告一名因肉眼血尿就诊于初级保健医生的男孩患膀胱癌的病例。该病例强调,临床医生在评估和检查有此主诉的儿童时,需要将恶性肿瘤视为血尿的可能病因。
