A 37-year-old man was referred to our department for investigation of grosshematuria. Ultrasonography and computed tomography of the abdomen showed a mass in the urinary bladder. Emergency transurethral resection was performed for the control of bleeding. The histopathological diagnosis was rhabdomyosarcoma of the urinary bladder. Radical cystectomy and ileal neobladder substitution were performed. Taking into consideration the patient's request not to receive chemotherapy, postoperative chemotherapy was not instituted. For 18 months, the patient has been doing well, without any evidence of recurrence.
