Papilloma of renal pelvis in childhood

Urology. 1990 Jun;35(6):523-5. doi: 10.1016/0090-4295(90)80108-y.

Abstract

A papilloma in the renal pelvis of a five-year-old girl is reported. The transitional cell tumors of the renal pelvis in the pediatric age group are reviewed, and this is found to be the first case of a benign papilloma in childhood. We believe this pathologic entity should be included in the differential diagnosis of hematuria in a child.
