Overview
Mesoblastic nephroma is a type of kidney tumor.
Classification
Mesoblastic nephroma may be classified according to pathology into three subtypes: classic, cellular, and mixed mesoblastic nephroma.[1]
Pathophysiology
On gross pathology, a solid nonencapsulated mass that often occurs near the renal hilum is the characteristic finding of mesoblastic nephroma. On microscopic histopathological analysis, spindle cell is the characteristic finding of classic mesoblastic nephroma; whereas, plump cells with vesicular nuclei is the characteristic finding of cellular mesoblastic nephroma.[2]
