[Multilocular cystic nephroma: diagnosis by imaging tests].
OBJECTIVE
To describe the presenting signs of multilocular cystic nephroma (MCN) in various imaging tests.


METHODS
We report a new case of MCN and describe the radiological characteristics of this neoplasia on intravenous urography (IVU), pyelography , CT scan and MRI.


RESULTS
CT scan and MRI findings are highly suggestive of multilocular cystic nephroma.


CONCLUSIONS
Various radiological tests may allow us to establish a working diagnosis for this kind of neoplasia, but CT scan and MRI are the main ones.
