Renin-producing Hepatoblastoma in an Infant: A Case Report
A BSTRACT A rare case of renin-secreting hepatoblastoma in a 1-year-old infant is presented, marked by unexplained hypertension. Elevated renin levels and immunohistochemical confirmation established the diagnosis. Surgical removal of the tumor normalized blood pressure. The case highlights the need to consider secondary hypertension in pediatric liver tumors for timely diagnosis and treatment.
