Congenital mesoblastic nephroma (CMN) is a rare mesenchymal tumour of the kidney representing nearly 3% of all renal tumors in children. Association between CMN and infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (IHPS) is very rare. To our best of knowledge, only one previous case was reported in the literature. In this report, we describe a new case of this rare association and review the previously reported cases in the literature.
