Abstract

Congenital mesoblastic nephroma is the most common neonatal kidney tumor and surgical excision is almost always curative. We report the prenatal detection of congenital mesoblastic nephroma by sonography and magnetic resonance imaging. After birth, a right nephrectomy was performed and the baby recovered well.
