Primary renal lymphoma is a controversial entity and extremely rare disease, possibly due to the fact that the kidney is one of the extranodal organs usually not containing lymphoid tissue. It is unclear if this conditions can be diagnosed preoperatively with imaging studies. In most cases the diagnosis is made after removal or biopsy of a kidney for suspected primary renal tumor or at autopsy. Treatment usually consists of surgery and chemotherapy with or without radiation therapy and the prognosis is poor. We report a case of primary renal lymphoma presenting with fever in a 13-month- old boy who was treated with surgical intervention and combination chemotherapy.
