“…80 % der Tumoren treten bei Kindern unter 5 Jahren auf. Es handelt sich hierbei meist um größere (> 5 cm) Tumoren mit Einblutungen, Nekrosen und zystischen Veränderungen [62]. Eine Sonderform ist der zystische Wilms-Tumor, bei dem die zystische Komponente überwiegt [51].…”

Cystic renal lesions are most often simple or complicated cysts, which can be seen solitary or as part of cystic renal disease. The minority of these lesions are benign or malignant cystic tumors. The classification of cystic renal masses by Bosniak (category l - IV) based on specific ultrasound and CT features is very useful for the characterization of the lesion and for the therapeutic decision. The main objective of this classification is to differentiate nonsurgical (category II) from surgical cystic masses (category III/IV). Ultrasound is the first modality of choice in the diagnostic work-up of cystic renal masses, because an accurate and economically reasonable diagnosis of the frequent simple cyst can be made by maintaining rigid ultrasound criteria of the Bosniak classification. If a complicated cyst or a cystic tumor is suspected a three phasic contrast-enhanced CT of the kidneys should be performed. MRI is superior to CT in the characterization of complex cystic masses.

“…These components, however, are more tightly associated with necrosis or hemorrhage. On US imaging, nephroblastoma has the same echogenicity of the liver and contains a greater solid component than CN (40), while CT reveals a heterogeneous, large, intrarenal often solid mass (33). It can also have a macrolobulated aspect, nodules satellites, and ellipsoidal or semilunar hyperdensity, representatives of compressed residual renal parenchyma (33, 41).…”

Cystic nephroma is a rare, benign multicystic lesion of the kidney. This tumor occurs both in children and in adults. In children, it is highly prevalent in males; in adults, it is more frequent in women. The term “cystic nephroma” represents two apparently different entities: pediatric cystic nephroma, a benign form thought to originate from metanephric tissue, and adult cystic nephroma, considered as a lesion of mixed epithelial stromal tumor. The clinical presentation may be a palpable mass or nonspecific symptoms such as abdominal pain, hematuria, and urinary tract infections. In this review, we summarize the ultrasound imaging features of cystic nephroma and describe the characteristics of the most common renal cystic lesions and the differential diagnosis of cystic nephroma with other renal cystic lesions.
