CONGENITAL MESOBLASTIC NEPHROMA OF INFANCY

A congenital mesoblastic nephroma occurring in eight infants is described. This tumor is composed primarily of fibroblastic tissue, and malignant epithelial components are missing. Foci of cystic and/or dysplastic tubules are always present. The tumor is thought to be histogenetically related to Wilms' tumor. Survival seems to be excellent following nephrectomy alone.
