Three cases of nephroblastoma presented "egg-shell" peripheral calcifications of pseudocystic appearance of radiology. These peripheral lesions are compared with the more commonly reported central calcifications. Their pathology is unknown and they lack prognostic significance of any importance. As for all nephroblastomas the diagnosis is based on straight abdomen images, intravenous urography, ultrasound and computed tomography. Differential diagnosis is basically from renal adenocarcinoma in children, the latter often exhibiting similar calcifications, the distinction between the two types of tumor depending on age of onset. These calcified lesions are non-specific findings and various diagnoses are discussed.
