Cited by 0 Articles

In the present article, we present the case of a 37-month-old male newborn, who was delivered by normal birth with no history of routine examinations during pregnancy, with an abdominal mass observed after the birth, and was eventually diagnosed with clear cell sarcoma of the kidney in the histopathology examination after the mass was dissected by surgery. We report the observed symptoms as well as related cases found in the literature related to childhood and newborn age clear cell sarcoma of the kidney. We also put forward clinical observance, stages, management and outcomes of clear cell sarcoma of the kidney during newborn. Our study underlines that clear cell sarcoma should be kept in mind during differential diagnosis although it is rarely observed in newborns.

Key words: Clear cell sarcoma; Kidney; Newborn; Children.
