Abstract
Cystic tumors of the kidney are uncommon and usually do not have solid areas. We report a predominantly cystic renal tuner with solid anapla stic component showing rhabdomyoblastic and cartilaginous differentiat ion in a 26-month-old girl. Terminology and pathogenesis of tumor prog ression are discussed along with a review of reports of tumors associa ted with cystic nephroma.
