kindlicher ossifizierender Nierentumor

Ossifying renal tumor of infancy (ORTI) is a rare renal tumor.

Epidemiology

  • extremely rare, <<1% of pediatric renal neoplasms (17 cases reported)
  • 6 days - 3 months
  • male predominant

Pathology

Histology reveals spindle cells and osteoblastic cells in a calcified osteoid matrix. It is thought to originate from intralobar nephrogenic rests.

Radiographic features

Abdominal radiography
Ultrasound
  • calcification is hyperechoic
  • there may be intra-tumoral flow on color Doppler ultrasound
CT

ORTI may resemble a staghorn calculus since it originates from the renal papilla, but it enhances postcontrast.

Treatment and prognosis

Cases of ORTI so far have been benign, with no recurrence after resection.
