Abstract

We have had 237 bladder tumor patients
during the last 12 years and 9 (3.79%) of these had primer non-transitional
cell tumors. 3 of nine these patients had pathologically proven RS (1.26%). Two
of them were under 4-years old and one was 38-years old. We reviewed the
records of our rhabdomyosarcoma cases and their outcomes were criticized with
the literature.
