Adult Wilms' Tumor : Monomorphous Epithelial, Tubular, Variant
|
|

Abstract
|
|
|
Adult Wilms' tumor, unlike that of childhood, is a rare disease. Microscopically, the
tumor is fundamentally characterized by triplastic emiryonal renal tumor composed of
variable amounts of metanephric blastema and its epithelial and stromal derivatives but
rarely a small group of tumors Composed virtually entirely of differentiated epithelial
derivatives, the abundance of tubular structures . These monomorphous epithelial type of
Wilms' tumor tended to haute an early onset and benign course.
Grossly, classic Wilms' tumor is a solid tumor, but very rarely shows cystic change
and may lewd to misin-terpretation as a polycystic kidney or multicystic neph-roma.
Here, we reports a case of primary renal tumor, grossly very similar to a multicystic
kidneybut histologically represent a tubular monomorphous epithelial variant of Wilms'
tumor occured in 63 year old male adult.
