A RARE CAUSE OF PEDIATRIC RENAL MASS
Abstract
Arteriovenous fistula (AVF) of kidney is a very rare differential for a renal mass. We
present a child who presented to us with right renal mass, which was diagnosed and treated
elsewhere as Wilms tumour. He was referred to our institute for further management. Repeat imaging
and additional investigations led to the diagnosis of a renal AVF.
