Abstract
Extrarenal Wilms tumors are extremely rare with only isolated case reports in the
pediatric literature. We present the case of a 2-year old boy who presented with a
large abdominal mass and constipation. Pathologic diagnosis of the tumor was extrarenal
Wilms tumor (ERWT) with favorable histology. We discuss the diagnostic workup, radiologic
and operative findings, treatment and review of the literature.
