The diagnosis of cystic nephroma is based on clinical signs, imaging tests, and anatomo-pathological study. In children, CNs can appear as a palpable abdominal mass in most of cases, hematuria or recurrent urinary infections. They are characterized by multycystic architecture and the exclusive presence of mature nephrogenic elements. Treatment is surgical with a very good prognosis in most of cases. We are going to report a case of a 13-month-old girl child diagnosed with Cystic nephromas who presented to pediatric emergency with unexplained crying episodes in order to increase clinicians awareness about this rare tumor.展开更多
