CYSTOGRAPHY IN CHILDHOOD

TUMORS AND PSEUDOTUMORS

ARTHUR S. TUCKER M.D. and LESTER PERSKY M.D.

Tumors of the bladder are very infrequent in childhood. Malignant neoplasms unfortunately are at least twice as common as benign neoplasms.

Eleven bladder neoplasms have been seen in a 16 year period—3 benign and 8 malignant. All of the latter were undifferentiated tumors which fell into the category of sarcoma or mesenchymoma. In addition, there were 3 patients with leukemia who developed pronounced hematuria from neoplastic infiltration of the bladder.

Conditions which must be differentiated from bladder tumors at cystography include ureteroceles, foreign bodies, and various defects due to extrinsic pressure. Unusual configurations of the bladder occur in congenital defects such as atresia of the vagina and hypoplasia of the abdominal wall.
