Abstract
Hemihypertrophy (Hemihyperplasia) is characterized by asymmetric overgrowth of cranium, face, trunk, limbs and digits. It may be an isolated form or it may occur in several syndromes. In both syndromic and isolated hemihypertrophy there are an increased risk of embryonal tumors, most commonly Wilms tumor, although other abdominal tumors such as hepatoblastoma and adrenal cell carcinoma also ocur. Consequently, along with the literature, we present a case of patient with Isolated Hemihypertrophy.
