[Carcinoma of the bladder in childhood (author's transl)].
The authors describe the extremely rare finding of a keratinized squamous cell carcinoma of the bladder in a 13 year old girl without however a history of the typical symptoms of the illness such as hematuria. The findings are reviewed in the light of the current literature. Enuresis leading to a chronic infection of the urinary tract is discussed as the possible etiologic factor.
