Abstract

Three cases of mixed epithelial and stromal tumor of the kidney with their imaging findings are described; these cases have not been reported previously in the radiology literature. This benign tumor contains epithelial and spindle cell stromal components and arises exclusively in adult women. It is characterized morphologically by a solid and cystic nature with delayed enhancement.
