Abstract

While the invasion of the bladder by neoplastic cells during acute lymphatic leukaemia in children has been reported by various authors, the leukaemic invasion of the bladder in adults is extremely rare. We report a case of recurrence of A.L.L. in the bladder presenting colicky symptomatology and obstruction of the excretory tracts.
