Infantile Congenital Mesoblastic Nephroma Leading to Multi-Systemic End-Organ Disease.
Overview
abstract
Congenital mesoblastic nephroma (CMN) is a rare infantile abdominal tumor that is highly curable with early surgical intervention. However, chronic, unrecognized tumor burden can cause significant compression of local vascular and solid structures, resulting in multi-systemic end-organ dysfunction. In this case report, we describe the effects of chronic abdominal compartment syndrome in an infant due to a solid renal tumor and its anesthetic implications.
