Renal cell carcinoma is an uncommon tumor in pediatric population.It is important for the clinicians to know its diagnosis as the management of renal cell carcinoma RCC is different from Wilms Tumor which is the most common tumor encountered in children .The management is surgical resection with no proven role for chemo or radiotherapy so far. Here, we present a case of seven-year-old male child presented with haematuria and no palpable lump. An echogenic mass was detected on his ultrasound. Further characterisation of the mass was studied by contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS), non-contrast computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Final diagnosis was confirmed based on histopathological examination. Left nephroureterectomy was done.
