چکیده

We report a case of mesoblastic nephroma detected prenatally by magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. MR imaging could provide valuable information about the origin and nature of a fetal abdominal mass and help define the relationship of the mass to adjacent structures.

Cellular Mesoblastic Nephroma with Liver Metastasis in a Neonate: Prenatal and Postnatal Diffusion-Weighted MR Imaging

Congenital mesoblastic nephroma (CMN) is the most common renal tumor in the first year of life. Here, we present unique findings of cellular variant CMN seen on prenatal and postnatal MRI with diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI).The mass was well-visualized on prenatal MR DWI with diffusion restriction in the solid portions. After excision of the mass, follow-up whole body MRI with DWI helped iden...

We here present the antenatal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of mesoblastic nephroma in a fetus. A profitable design using single-shot fast spin echo (SSFSE) MRI sequence was applied for recognition of the abdominal mass with renal origin in the mobile fetus. SSFSE could significantly shorten the scanning time, therefore we got satisfactory images without fetal sedation. The image fi...

Prenatal diagnosis of congenital mesoblastic nephroma

Congenital mesoblastic nephroma is a rare renal tumor that is diagnosed during pregnancy and is associated with polyhydramnios, prematurity, and neonatal hypertension. Differential diagnoses include Wilms tumor, adrenal neuroblastoma, and other abdominal tumors. We report a case of congenital mesoblastic nephroma detected by prenatal ultrasonography as a large fetal renal mass with polyhydramni...

Congenital mesoblastic nephroma: report of a case.

Congenital mesoblastic nephroma (CMN) is a rare renal tumor with a distinct pathology and a unique clinical, therapeutic, and prognostic pattern. The characteristic pathological feature is uniform mesenchymal spindle-shaped cells arranged in interlacing bundles. The prognosis of typical CMN is believed to be excellent by nephrectomy alone. We report a typical case of congenital mesoblastic neph...

Pamidronate therapy for hypercalcemia and congenital mesoblastic nephroma: a case report

Hypercalcemia can causes life threatening complications. We report an infant with severe hypercalcemia due to congenital mesoblastic nephroma. Hypercalcemia was corrected before nephrectomy by pamidronate. According to our knowledge this is a rare case with severe neoplasm induced hypercalcemia among neonates who treated by bisphosphonates. The aim of this report is to define new approach to ne...
