چکیده
Mixed epithelial and stromal tumour of the kidney (MESTK), is a rare kidney tumour. About 100 cases so far have been reported in the literature.

We report a rare presentation of a 25 cm size giant MESTK arising from the left kidney in a young female in the absence of any clinically detectable hormonal abnormalities and successfully managed by nephron-sparing surgery.
