  • Title: [Nephroblastomatosis vs Wilms' tumor: a case report].
    Author: Gómez García E, García-Peña P, García García-Esquinas M, Lucaya Layret J.
    Journal: Radiologia; 2007; 49(6):444-7. PubMed ID: 18021679.
    Abstract:
    Nephroblastomatosis is an abnormality of nephrogenesis and has been defined as the persistence of metanephric blastema into infancy. The association of these foci of fetal tissue with Wilms' tumor has been repeatedly documented in the literature. Numerous imaging modalities currently enable the detection of nephroblastomatosis and follow-up of patients to detect neoplastic change, which is especially indicated during infancy and early childhood, when the likelihood of Wilms' tumor developing is highest.
