Abstract:
The cure rate of Wilm's tumor in childhood could be increased to more than 80% by systemic adjuvant chemotherapy in combination with operation and radiation. The importance of histological grading is discussed. Especially preoperative chemotherapy has made progress possible in reducing risks of operative techniques and has improved the prognosis for survival.
