The cell differentiation theory should be considered as an important alternative theory in the histogenesis of extragonadal immature teratoma. Extragonadal immature teratoma can be differentiated from extrarenal Wilm's tumor by a proper histopatological examination particularly in view of the presence of neuroepithelial tissue.Key words : bladder immature teratoma - extrarenal Wilm's tumor -cell dedifferentiation theory
