Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 9

Abstract

Urothelial carcinomas of the bladder in young patients is rare with less than 1% of such tumors presenting in the first 4 decades of life. When urothelial carcinomas occur in young adults, it presents as a low grade,non-invasive disease.2 Herewe report a case of a young adult presenting with invasive urothelial carcinoma of the bladder with retrograde metastatic spread to the ureter, kidney and prostate.Young adults are rarely diagnosed with bladder cancer and it is even more unusual to find an invasive urothelial carcinoma with retrograde metastasis among the young individuals.2
