Abstract

An unusual case of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with primary renal involvement in a four-year-old boy is presented. The diagnosis was established by renal biopsy. The findings of an exploratory laparotomy and an extensive staging procedure showed no other primary site. The patient has been followed up for 14 months and no evidence of recurrence has been observed.
