A rare cause of neonatal hypertension: Congenital mesoblastic nephroma

A rare cause of neonatal hypertension: Congenital Mesoblastic Nephroma(CMN) is a rare renal tumor in childhood and has been reported withpalpable abdominal mass, hypertension, hematuria, polyuria and hypercalcemia.Histopathologically it has been classified into two histological types: classicand cellular. We present a 32-week gestation infant and his histopathologyreports of cellular CMN presented with refractory hypertension.
