Abstract Introduction: Wilms' tumour is the most common childhood renal malignancy, with 5–10% of cases presenting bilaterally 1. However, there currently no consensus between centres on optimal management bilateral tumours. This an international multi-centre case series comparing and outcomes tumours low-income (LIC) high-income (HIC). Methods: Patients were identified from...

Wilms’ tumor is the most frequently occurring renal tumor in children and is one of the most treatment-responsive tumors. A tumor-suppressor gene and other genetic abnormalities have been implicated in its etiology. In addition, patients with several congenital anomalies, such as Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome, WAGR syndrome, and DenysDrash syndrome, have an increased risk of Wilms’ tumor. Previou...

A right-sided renal mass in an 11-month-old girl was diagnosed by percutaneous needle biopsy as Wilms tumor, which on histologic examination was found to be predominantly rhabdomyomatous. As part of the examination, serum creatine kinase (CK) and CK-MB levels were measured and were significantly elevated at 994 U/L (reference range, 42-180 U/L) and 40 U/L (reference range, 0-3 U/L), respectivel...

Formerly thought to have a constant incidence rate throughout the world, Wilms' tumour (nephroblastoma) has been shown to be less common among Asian children. A retrospective demographic and morphological study of Wilms' tumour histologically diagnosed over a 22-year period at the Department of Pathology, University Hospital, Kuala Lumpur was conducted to assess for inherent demographic and mor...

background: neuroblastoma is the most common tumor in infancy and wilms’ tumor is the most common malignant tumor of kidney in childhood. both the tumors are usually within the differential diagnosis of each other. this study compares the clinical manifestations, sex and age distribution of childhood wilms’ tumor and neuroblastoma at one of tehran children hospitals. materials and methods: the ...

Wilms tumour (WT) is the most common paediatric kidney cancer and affects approximately one in 10 000 children. The tumour is associated with undifferentiated embryonic lesions called nephrogenic rests (NRs) or, when diffuse, nephroblastomatosis. WT or NRs can occur in both kidneys, termed bilateral disease, found in only 5-8% of cases. Management of bilateral WT presents a major clinical chall...
