WILMS TUMOR or Nephroblastoma

• Most common primary malignant renal tumor of childhood 6%


• Peak of incidence at 2-3years of age
• Most common sites of metastases are the lungs, regional lymph
node and liver
Genetic

Vast majority of wilms tumor sporadic


1%-2% is familial which occurs at earlier age
Develop in foci of embryonal kidney tissue called nephrogenic
rest
WT1 the most characterized Wilms tumor gene
Cont..
• Children with some genetic syndromes are predisposing to
wilms tumor:
1. WAGR (wilms tumor, aniridia, genitourinary abnormalities,
MR)
2. Denys Drash syndrome ( Renal failure, Mesangeal sclerosis,
Male hermaphroditism)
3. Beck wiedemann syndrome( hemi hypertrophy, macroglossia,
omphalocele, organomegaly)
Clinical finding
Asymptomatic
Abdominal mass
Hematuria 10-25%
Hypertension 25%
Abdominal pain 30%
Fever 20%
Anorexia and vomiting
Anemia
Thrombocytosis
Von willebrand factor and factor V11 deficiency
polycythemia
Staging for wilms tumor
Deferential Diagnosis
• Neuroblastoma
• Hydronephrosis
• multicystic kidney disease
• abdominal lymphoma
• retroperitoneal rhabdomyosarcoma
Diagnosis
Abdominal ultrasound
CT scan
Chest x ray
Bone imaging
Fine needle aspiration cytology
Treatment
• Surgery
• Radiotherapy
• Chemotherapy
Con..
• <2yr old with tumor <550gr Nephrectomy
• Vincristine and Actinomycin for 18week at stage 1 and 2
• Doxorubicin and abdominal radiation for stage 3
• Cyclophosphamide, Carboplatin and etopside for anaplasia and
metastatic disease
• Pulmonary radiation for pulmonary metastasis

Prognosis
• Young age, low stage and low weight <550gr are favorable
prognosis
• Anaplasia and loss of heterozygosity of 1p or 16q increase the
risk of recurrence
Reference
• GHAI essential pediatric 9th edition
• Basis of pediatric 9th edition (Pervez Akbar khan)
• Nelson Textbook of Pediatrics 21st edition
