Abstract:
We present a patient with trisomy 18 syndrome and bilateral Wilms' tumor representing the second case of the literature. Physicians should remain alert to the possibility of WT in patients with trisomy 18 who may survive beyond infancy. In this event, it may be essential to consider periodic abdominal ultrasound for screening purposes. A critical review of the literature is presented.
