Asymmetric development of tumor-like cysts in a child with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease.
We report a case of asymmetric development of tumor-like cysts in a child with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). The preliminary considerations were renal cell carcinoma and Wilms' tumor. After open biopsy, the patient was diagnosed with ADPKD with atypical renal cyst development. The development pattern of renal cysts in children with ADPKD is varied, and open biopsy is sometimes needed.
