Summary
Multilocular cystic nephroma, a rare kidney tumor, was treated in five children using partial or full nephrectomy. Ultrasonography aids in diagnosis, with no adjuvant therapies required post-surgery.
Area of Science:
- Pediatric Urology
- Renal Pathology
- Surgical Oncology
Background:
- Multilocular cystic nephroma (MLCN) is an uncommon benign kidney neoplasm.
- Distinguishing MLCN from other cystic renal lesions is crucial for appropriate management.
- Previous literature on MLCN management, particularly in pediatric cases, requires further elucidation.
