Zusammenfassung:A rare case of transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder in an 18-year-old female is presented. The chief complaint was gross hematuria and pain on urination. Transurethral resection was performed and pathological findings were low grade transitional cell carcinoma without invasion. During a 5-year follow up, she had relapse of the bladder tumor twice. Transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder in children and adolescents may be low grade, low stage and rarely recurrent, but the possibility of recurrence does exist. We emphasize the necessity of periodic cystoscopy for following up young adolescents with transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder
