==General== | |||
*Common abdominal [[pediatric pathology|pediatric]] tumour. | |||
**Affects approximately 1 in 8000 children. | |||
**There is no sex predilection and the mean patient age at diagnosis ranges among 37 to 43 months. | |||
*May be associated with a syndrome:<ref>URL: [http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/989398-overview http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/989398-overview]. Accessed on: 9 March 2011.</ref> | |||

*Most nephroblastomas are unifocal. | |||
**Usually solitary, rounded, multilobular masses sharply demarcated from adjacent parenchyma. | |||
**The cut surface is most commonly pale grey or tan. | |||
**Cyst most be prominent in some cases. | |||
*Multifocal masses in a single kidney and bilateral primary lesions are less frequent. | |||

==Microscopic== | |||
Features - classically three components (blastema, immature stroma, tubules):<ref name=Ref_PCPBoD8_254-5>{{Ref PCPBoD8|254-5}}</ref> | |||
#Malignant [[Small round blue cell tumours|small round blue cells]] ("blastema"): | |||
#*The blastemal component is the least differentiated cellular element. | |||
#*Size = ~ 2x RBC diameter. | |||
#*Nuclear pleomorphism (variation of size, shape and staining). | |||
#**Irregular nuclear membrane - '''important'''. | |||
#*Scant/difficult to discern cytoplasm - basophilic (light blue). | |||
#*Mitoses - common. | |||
#Stroma ("immature stroma"): | |||
#*Spindle cells: | |||
#**Elliptical nuclear membrane. | |||
#**Abundant loose cytoplasm. | |||
#Epithelial components ("tubules"): | |||
#*Primitive rossete-like tubules, well-formed maturing and mature tubules, glomerular structures and variably papillary architecture. | |||
#**Usually clustered. | |||
#**Usu. have a central (clear/white) space surrounded by a rim of intensely eosinophilic cytoplasm. | |||
#**Nuclei of tubular structures often elongated and palisaded. | |||
Other findings: | |||
*Commonly seen in association with ''nephrogenic rests''. | |||
