Benign medullary fibroma of the kidney: a rare diagnostic dilemma.

Santosh Kumar1, Gautam Ram Choudhary, Bhuvanesh Nanjappa, Amanjit Bal.   

Abstract

Renomedullary interstitial cell tumor or medullary fibroma, is a small tumor that commonly presents as an incidental finding, but in rare cases maybe large and symptomatic. Although it is a benign tumor, it is difficult to differentiate this lesion from other malignancies of the kidney on radiological basis and hence many patients undergo radical nephrectomy. We present a case of renal medullary fibroma and various nuances associated with radiological identification of this lesion and its management related dilemmas.
