“…Rarely, however, cases with local recurrence or distant metastasis have been reported, particularly with the cellular variant of the tumor. Bell and Goodman [11] described the imaging appearances of an unusual, predominantly perinephric cystic congenital mesoblastic nephroma (CMN), with relative renal preservation but with retroperitoneal extension and bowel infiltration, which was complicated by hepatic metastases. Patel et al [12] described a patient with isolated metastasis to the liver.…”

We report a rare adult case of mesoblastic nephroma with pulmonary metastasis. A 28-year-old man was referred to our hospital with a complaint of left flank pain and intermittent gross hematuria. A diagnosis of a left renal tumor was made after several radiographic examinations. But, a nodule was also detected in the lung by CT scan. We operated on him for left radical nephrectomy. On the basis of the histological analysis, we diagnosed it as adult mesoblastic nephroma (MN). Subsequently, he underwent follow-up at 25 months after the operation. Although there was no evidence of recurrence of the primary tumor lesion, the nodule in the left upper lobe was enlarged. Cutting needle core biopsy was therefore performed and the resultant data showed that the metastatic development of adult MN had occurred. We diagnosed the patient as having metastasis of cellular adult MN in the lung before the operation and postoperative metastatic progress. Local radiofrequency catheter ablation failed to treat the lung metastasis. Keywords Adult Á Kidney neoplasm Á Lung Á Metastasis Á Nodule Á Operation C. Chen and Y.-H.

“…Die radiologische Literatur beschreibt das typische und atypische CMN, wobei dem atypischen CMN histologisch der zelluläre Subtyp zuzuordnen ist. Bell und Goodman [5] beschreiben den Fall eines perinephritischen zystischen mesoblastischen Nephroms mit Darminfiltration und Lebermetastasen. Fernmetastasen eines CMN sind selten [5].…”

A typical finding of CMN in MRI is a heterogeneous tumor without demarcation from the rest of the kidney parenchyma by a pseudocapsule. The cellular type of CMN tends to have a higher tumor volume and shows more necrosis, bleeding and cysts than the classic type in MRI. A peripheral contrast-enhancement in MRI is not characteristic for any type of CMN. Local tumor staging is not possible with MRI.

Kidney tumors represent 6.2% of malignant tumors in children. History, clinical course and radiological findings are necessary elements in the differential diagnosis of the different renal tumors. In the case of nephroblastoma, chemotherapy is based solely on the radiological diagnosis without prior histology. In therapy-optimizing studies of the Society of Pediatric Oncology and Hematology, preoperative chemotherapy is performed. Therapy monitoring is performed in the course of and after preoperative chemotherapy to verify tumor response. Radiological staging plays a significant role in deciding on further treatment and in operative planning. Three-dimensional visualization of the abdominal situs can assist preoperative planning. In summary, diagnostic imaging in renal tumors in children plays a role in differential diagnosis, staging, monitoring of therapy, and surgical planning.
