Abstract:
Mesoblastic nephroma is an uncommon renal tumor reported in infants but rarely in adults. We describe a case of calcified mesoblastic nephroma occurring in an adult. It is difficult, on the basis of radiologic images, to differentiate between calcified mesoblastic nephroma and calcified renal cell carcinoma.
