    Abstract:
    In the most common clinical expression of infantile polycystic disease, the kidneys are greatly enlarged in the neonatal period. When the child gets older the kidneys become smaller. In this case report, both kidneys kept growing after birth causing abdominal distention and respiratory distress. The differential diagnosis was a bilateral massive nephroblastomatosis, but the renal pathology showed characteristic features of infantile polycystic disease.
