| description |
Urothelial bladder neoplasms (UBN) are uncommon in children and are poorly understood. Their management is contentious, and there are currently no pediatric guidelines available, making it difficult to envision a surgical approach that can be defined as the gold standard for the treatment of these diseases. Pneumovesicoscopy, which has already been used to treat other urological diseases, could be a promising treatment option for selected cases of this group of pathologies. We present our experience with three pediatric UBN cases in which pneumovesicoscopy was used for complete excision of a perimeatal papilloma in two cases and biopsy of a botryoid rhabdomyosarcoma in one. The pneumovesicoscopic approach, in our experience, provided a viable alternative technique for the management of selected cases of UBN.
