“…Therefore, definitive diagnosis relies on histopathological findings. 1,7 Due to the limited number of cases in pediatric literature, there are no consensual guidelines for management of XPN in this group of patients. A total nephrectomy is usually required in the diffuse type, as it leads to a non-functioning, infected kidney.…”

“…Finally, because XGP presents in children as an abdominal mass, it is sometimes mistaken for other pediatric tumors, such as Wilms tumor, renal cell carcinoma, neuroblastoma, leukemia, or lymphoma [ 13 , 22 , 28 , 53 , 54 ], inflammatory processes including pyelonephritis, actinomycosis, renal tuberculosis [ 12 ], and renal abscesses [ 28 ]. Therefore, the diagnosis requires histology.…”

“…The diffuse form involves the entire kidney while the focal form is isolated to a single segment or pole; most commonly the lower pole [ 12 ]. Focal XGP has also been termed “pseudo-tumoral” as it often mimics renal tumors (eg, Wilms tumor, clear cell carcinoma), and histopathology is necessary to obtain an accurate diagnosis [ 9 , 13 ].…”

Como se ha reportado en otras ocasiones esta entidad patológica se ha asociado a múltiples variedades de hallazgos incidentales u otras variantes tales como fístulas, variantes en edad de presentación, o neoplasias de distintos órganos 3,4,5,6,9 , como en el presente caso. Llama la atención la presencia de sitio de inflamación xantogranulomatosa que presenta el resto de la pieza en la cola del páncreas, que puede hacer pensar sea por la adyacencia de las estructuras, y el origen del cáncer, la resultante de la obstrucción por el proceso inflamatorio 10 .…”
