Nephrogenic adenoma of the bladder in a child--immunohistochemical and lectinhistochemical investigations.

A morphological study of a 6-year-old girl with a nephrogenic adenoma of the bladder is presented. The tumor developed 4 years after multiple reconstructive operations of the urinary tract. Immuno- and lectinhistochemically, the tubular structure of the lesion resembled that of a collecting tubule. A conservative approach was the treatment of choice in the absence of microscopically malignant changes.
