abstract = "Nephroblastoma or Wilms{\textquoteright} tumor (WT) is the most common renal neoplasm in children accounting for 90 % of pediatric renal tumors (Pastore et al. 2006). It is a tumor with a good prognosis and with well-established treatment strategies. Other rare malignant renal tumors, such as clear cell sarcoma and rhabdoid tumor of the kidney, have a poor prognosis despite aggressive treatment. Renal cell carcinoma occurs in older children, while mesoblastic nephroma is the most frequent renal tumor in the neonate. Hematological malignancies, the most frequent neoplasms in children, may also involve the kidney, most often as part of a multi-organ involvement. Renal infections and malformations are much more common in children than renal tumors and may show a pseudotumoral pattern mimicking a renal tumor. In all cases, close collaboration among radiologists, pediatricians, and pathologists is essential so as to avoid diagnostic pitfalls due to atypical presentations.",
