Abstract

Multilocular renal cyst having a distinctive gross feature of multiple; variable sized; noncommunicating cysts is uncommon and uncertain natured lesion. As a treatment modality of multilocular renal cyst; local excision or partial nephrectomy could be done. However; simple or radical nephrectomy might have been performed because of the documented association with malignancy such as Wilms tumor. Herein; we report a case of multilocular renal cyst in an 11-month old infant treated by radical nephrectomy with possibility of combined malignancy.
