This paper dealt with histopathological observations of the nephroblastoma in the pregnant pig which died 8 days before parturition day. In the necropsy findings the pregnant pig died of circulative and respiratory disturbance by compression of fetus and renal tumor weighing about 12 kg. In the microscopical findings of the renal tumor it was composed of well differentiated tumor cells and connective tissue elements.
