Malignant rhabdoid tumor (MRT) is one of the most aggressive and lethal malignancies in pediatric oncology. Malignant rhabdoid tumor was initially described in 1978 as a rhabdomyosarcomatoid variant of a Wilms tumor because of its occurrence in the kidney and because of the resemblance of its cells to rhabdomyoblasts.

Abstract Malignant rhabdoid tumor of the kidney is an uncommon renal tumor in children. The tumor has aggressive behavior and a poor prognosis and is extremely rare in adults; only 3 cases of renal rhabdoid tumors have been reported in adults. We describe here the microscopic, immunohistochemical, and electron microscopic characteristics of another case in a 38-year-old woman. This case reinforces the importance of recognizing this entity in the adult population.

Background: Rhabdoid tumor of the kidney is an uncommon and aggressive tumor characterized by poor outcomes. Given the rarity of this tumor, the diagnosis is still a challenge and the treatment are not well codified. Case report: A 4-month-old girl presented with abdominal mass. Clinical and radiologic explorations suggested nephroblastoma. The diagnosis of rhabdoid tumor was made post operatively based on anatomopathological findings.
