title: Neuroblastoma mimicking rhabdoid tumor of the kidney.
abstract: Rhabdoid tumor of the kidney (RTK) has mimicked other renal tumors histologically, but there has been only one previous report of neuroblastoma mimicking RTK. The authors present the case of a 17-month-old boy who presented with a large left renal mass that was diagnosed as RTK. At the completion of therapy he was found to have residual masses. They were biopsied and found to be viable neuroblastoma.
