Abstract:
Wilms' tumour is one of the most common abdominal tumours of childhood. Severe perirenal bleeding resulting in consumptive coagulopathy and colonic obstruction are rare complications of Wilms' tumour. We present a case report of one patient with these two complications, their successful management with preoperative angioembolisation and emergency nephrectomy, and a review of the relevant literature.
