Abstract
The authors present the data available in the literature on the incidence of nephroblastoma of the horseshoe kidney in children. They note the rarity of this pathology in the pattern of renal malignancies, diagnostic difficulties, and no consensus as to its treatment policy. The authors describe their observation of a 3-year-old child with nephroblastoma with bilateral involvement of the horseshoe kidney.
