RESUMO
Clear-cell sarcoma of the kidney (CCSK) is a rare malignant tumor of childhood, known for its aggressiveness, its tendency to recurrence and to metastasis to bone. We report an observation of a child of 48 months carrying a large abdominal mass. The diagnosis of the SCCR was made on biopsy, since imaging remained uncertain as to the renal origin of the mass. Indeed, our observation underlines the difficulty of its diagnosis. Excepting the morphological aspect, there is no criterion for its recognition. Its prognosis has been improved by the new treatments.
