title: [Bladder tumors in young people].
abstract: Tumors of the bladder, particularly urothelial carcinoma (UC) are very rare malignant diseases in young people. They mostly occur in elder persons of male gender. We present 8 patients below 35 years of age, (average age 24.7), in whom the presence of UC was verified. The main symptom was total or terminal hematuria. The results showed that 5 patients had low-risc group of tumors (G1, pTa), while 3 tumors were of medium-risk group (G2, pT1). We concluded that UC in young people was low-grade and non-invasive. However, for better evaluation it was necessary to observe patients for longer period of time.
