title: A case of primary malignant lymphoma of the bladder in childhood.
abstract: Primary malignant lymphoma of the bladder is a rare entity. Review of the reported cases of bladder lymphoma in the literature reveals that bladder lymphoma is typically found in elderly patients. We report a well documented case of a non-Hodgkin's primary bladder lymphoma in childhood. The unusual clinical presentation, immunochemical analysis, treatment and 5-year followup are discussed.
