N2 - Extrarenal malignant rhabdoid tumors (MRTs) are rare tumors with a poor prognosis. Five-year overall survival for patients with MRTs is poor at approximately 20%.1 There are 5 case reports of histologically confirmed primary MRT of the bladder in pediatric patients. Herein, we report a case of an MRT of the bladder in a 14-year-old boy and discuss the preoperative evaluation, treatment options, and possible etiologies of metastasis after radical surgery.
