Nephroblastomas were induced at an early age in two of six cynomolgus monkeys by prenatal exposure to 1,2-dimethylhydrazine. In one, the tumor of the right kidney had metastasized into the lower lobes of the lungs. By their histologic structure, development, and clinical course, the induced nephroblastomas were analogous to the Wilms' tumors often found in children.
