A retrospective survey of young servicemen presenting with transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder aged 40 years or below is presented, 19 such patients having been identified over a 20-year period. The results were compared with those of other similar series. The tumour behaviour appears to vary with age at presentation, its propensity for multifocal presentation, recurrence, progression to invasion and mortality all rising over the first 4 decades of life. These trends appear to be linked…

Urothelial cancer of bladder in young versus older adults: Clinical and pathological characteristics and outcomes
[Bladder tumor in young patients: a series of 26 cases. Comparison with a review of the literature].
TLDR
The natural history of superficial bladder tumours appears to differ according to age, before the age of 30 years, tumours are frequently stage Ta, well differentiated, with a low recurrence rate, and between the ages of 30 and 40 years, the course of superficial tumours is similar to that observed in older subjects.
