title: [Retroperitoneal hamartoma. Apropos of 6 cases].
abstract: Retroperitoneal hamartoma is an exceptional, benign, malformative tumor (1, 2% among retroperitoneal tumors in children). The authors report 6 cases which have been observed at the C.C.I. (Hôpital des Enfants Malades. Paris) for a 15 years period. This tumor has been revealed, generally in 3 years old children, by various clinical pictures. Echography can confirm the liquid contents of the tumor and her retroperitoneal sit. Surgical but non aggressive complete remove leads to recovery without any sequela.
