Abstract
Bladder tumors are extremely rare in young adults and are usually linked to tobacco abuse, chronic infections, or occupational exposure to carcinogens. We present a case of a papillary urothelial neoplasm in a 19-year-old man with no significant risk factors, initially detected by sonography and later confirmed with computed tomographic urography and cystoscopy. The tumor was quickly resected and mitomycin C instilled in the bladder prophylactically. This is an atypical situation in a patient with none of the common risk factors.
