“…There are a few other case reports in the literature presenting teratomas arising from the kidney. Glazier et al (8) reported a left sided renal cystic teratoma on ultrasonography in a 59-year-old woman. Ishii et al published the CT findings of a case with a large teratoma originated from the right kidney in a 3-month-old girl and differential diagnostic properties of the entity from Wilms’ tumor were discussed (9).…”

Teratomas are rare germline tumors that originate from one or more embryonic germ cell layers. Teratoma of the kidney is extremely rare, and less than 30 cases of primary intrarenal teratomas have been published to date. We report the main radiologic features of an unusual case of mature cystic teratoma arising from the left kidney in a two-year-old boy. A left-sided abdominal mass was detected on physical examination and B-Mod Ultrasound (US) examination revealed a heterogeneous mass with central cystic component. Computed tomography (CT) demonstrated a lobulated, heterogeneous, hypodense mass extending craniocaudally from the splenic hilum to the level of the left iliac fossa. Nephrectomy was performed and a large, fatty mass arising from the left kidney was excised. The final pathologic diagnosis was confirmed as cystic renal teratoma.

“…They are predominantly extragonadal, occur in the midline and are generally associated with reproductive organs. [1] Extragonadal teratomas are more commonly seen in the retroperitoneum and mediastinum. In infants, sacrococcygeal region is more commonly involved.…”

Inflammatory pseudotumor (IPT) of the kidney is a very rare lesion. We describe an 8-year-old boy with IPT of the kidney presenting as a single episode of hematuria. The case highlights a new feature, metaplastic bone, not previously described in IPT. This new feature may be helpful in establishing the correct preoperative and histopathologic diagnosis of IPT of kidney and avoiding inappropriately aggressive therapy. Despite its rarity, IPT of the kidney should be kept in mind in the differential diagnosis of a solitary renal mass.
