[A case of mesoblastic nephroma in an adult patient]

We treated a rare case of adult mesoblastic nephroma. The patient was a 52-year-old Japanese man with the chief complaint of intermittent gross hematuria and left lumbar pain. Abdominal ultrasonography, computed tomography, excretory urography, retrograde pyelography and angiography revealed a left renal tumor suspected to be a left pelvic tumor. A left nephroureterectomy was performed. The histologic examination showed a mesoblastic nephroma. A total of 38 adult mesoblastic nephroma cases were reviewed.
