title: [Hemihypertrophy in a boy with polycystic kidney].
abstract: Ultrasonographic and radiological examination of a male newborn with a mass in the left lumbar region revealed bilateral polycystic kidneys. At the age of 6 months, a moderate hemihypertrophy of the left side was detected and confirmed with 2 1/2 years. Growth, development and renal functions are normal. The association of hemihypertrophy with nephroblastoma is well known, with polycystic kidneys, however, very rare.
