Abstract
Renal neoplasms are rare in the newborn and account for only 8% of neonatal tumours. Congenital mesoblastic nephroma (CMN), first described by Kastner in 1921, is the most common renal tumour in the neonate. It is also known as a fetal renal hamartoma, mesenchymal hamartoma of infancy, or lipomyomatous hamartoma.
