summary

The microscopic findings and the clinical course were analysed in 8 children with spontaneous rupture of Wilniis tumour. Mioroscopically all tumours had poorly differentiated, early embryonal morphological structure resembling microcellular Sarcoma,. In the stroma of the tumours a great numiber of patbolagical, thiin-waliled, wide capillary vassels was observed. These vessels are of Iow biological value and rupture eaisily leading to development of interstitial haema-toima. Besides poorly differentiated, richly vascularized strueture the authors stress the presemce of thinned capsule of the tumour and its marginal position which may play a role in the mechanisim of ruipture. The prognosis in siponta-neous rupture of these tumours is poor.
