RESUMO
Renal bilharzioma is an exceptional localization that occurs as a complication of urogenital bilharzioma. The authors report the case of a renal bilharzioma, in a 7-year-old patient, being considered as a nephroblastoma. The investigations revealed a large abdominal mass with solid component. She underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy and radical nephrectomy. The histological examination of the specimen concluded to renal bilharzioma. The authors underline the difficulty of differential diagnosis with nephroblastoma. The diagnosis is often made after surgery by histological examination of the specimen.
