Abstract :

Multicystic nephroma is a relatively rare, nongenetic and benign lesion of the kidney which has a bimodal distribution. The non-specific clinical findings and the poor contribution of imaging examinations make the preoperative diagnosis a diagnostic dilemma and difficult to differentiate from other cystic renal neoplasia. We report a case of cystic nephroma in a 40 year old female who presented with right sided abdominal lump and pain in abdomen since 6 months. After a series of examinations including abdominal ultrasound and computed tomography, she underwent right partial nephrectomy and diagnosis was confirmed on histopathology.
