Pamidronate therapy for hypercalcemia and congenital mesoblastic nephroma: a case report
نویسندگان
چکیده
Hypercalcemia can causes life threatening complications. We report an infant with severe hypercalcemia due to congenital mesoblastic nephroma. Hypercalcemia was corrected before nephrectomy by pamidronate. According to our knowledge this is a rare case with severe neoplasm induced hypercalcemia among neonates who treated by bisphosphonates. The aim of this report is to define new approach to neoplasm induced neonatal hypercalcemia.

Congenital mesoblastic nephroma (CMN) is a rare renal tumor with a distinct pathology and a unique clinical, therapeutic, and prognostic pattern. The characteristic pathological feature is uniform mesenchymal spindle-shaped cells arranged in interlacing bundles. The prognosis of typical CMN is believed to be excellent by nephrectomy alone. We report a typical case of congenital mesoblastic neph...

We here present the antenatal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of mesoblastic nephroma in a fetus. A profitable design using single-shot fast spin echo (SSFSE) MRI sequence was applied for recognition of the abdominal mass with renal origin in the mobile fetus. SSFSE could significantly shorten the scanning time, therefore we got satisfactory images without fetal sedation. The image fi...

INTRODUCTION Congenital Mesoblastic Nephroma (CMN) is a rare pediatric renal tumor. It comprises two histological subtypes, namely classic and cellular, with the second accounting for two thirds of all cases and being more often associated with poor prognosis. It remains a diagnostic challenge for pathologists due to its similarity with other more frequent pediatric kidney neoplasms. CASE REP...
