Abstract
|
|
|
|
A round, milkish white mass, approximately 4×4×5㎝ in size was found at the cranial part of the left kidney from a New Zealand White rabbit which was used as an untreated control animal in the safety evaluation test in the Toxicology Research Center, Korea Research Institute of Chemical Technology. The mass was lobulated and encapsulated. The cut surface revealed several round well-circumscribed lobules which were 0.5-3㎝ in diameter. No metastasis was observed. The microscopic features consisted of blastema and epithelial structures at variable stages of differentiation including primitive tubules, ducts, glomeruloid bodies. Normal mesenchymal cells were distributed among them. A diagnosis of nephroblastoma was made on the basis of the gross and microscopic features.
