Abstract:
Multilocular cystic nephroma of the kidney is an infrequent lesion and has been reported in the literature under several names. These various denominations reflect the controversy about its nature. Some authors include the lesion among renal dysplasia, while others consider it to be a benign neoplasm that might be related to nephrtblastoms(Wilms` tumor). We present a case of 52 year old male with multilocular cystic nephroma of the left kidney which was composed of highly cellular spindle shaped stromal cells and locally recurred as sarcoma after nephrectomy.
