| Popis: |
A 9-month-old boy with a primary cystic lymphangioma of the right kidney is reported. The clinical and radiological features favored a malignant tumor. Histology revealed the lesion to be a lymphangioma; the diagnosis was confirmed by immunohistochemistry and chemical analysis of the intracystic fluid. Lymphangiomas of the kidney are rare in adults; they are even rarer in infants and children. Nevertheless, renal lymphangiomas should be considered in the differential diagnosis of multicystic, unilateral renal masses, independent of the age of the patient. |
