A newborn with hemihypertrophy and bilateral palpable abdominal masses due to markedly enlarged kidneys is reported.
The kidneys showed intrinsic distortion of the collecting systems by intravenous urography and a preoperative diagnosis of Wilms tumor was made. Open wedge biopsies of each kidney evinced normal tissue. Despite large kidneys the patient has remained well for 3 years.
