  abstract = {Urothelial bladder tumors in children are an uncommon pathology, and they are not usually associated with exposure to carcinogenic factors. We report the case of a 12 year-old child diagnosed with a bladder carcinoma after performing ultrasound for microhematuria. The transurethral resection revealed a low grade urothelial carcinoma (pTa). After 5 years of follow-up, the patient is disease free. Urothelial bladder tumors in young people should be suspected in case of painless gross hematuria. They are usually solitary, low grade and non-muscle-invasive tumors and their standard treatment is the transurethral resection. The recurrence rate is very low, so it has been proposed a follow-up based on ultrasound monitoring. Cystoscopy should be reserved for cases of high suspicion of recurrence.},
