title: [Primitive neuroendocrine/ectodermal kidney tumor].
abstract: PNET of the kidney are rare, aggressive tumors that occur mainly in adolescents. The diagnosis of PNET is difficult, but is possible with pathognomonic radiological findings. Since a radical nephrectomy is generally not sufficient for PNET of the kidney, early diagnosis and treatment is essential for successful recovery.
