    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Partial nephrectomy in children with Wilms' tumors shows excellent long-term results for healthy kidneys but invariable recurrence in diffuse nephroblastomatosis, suggesting its use only in select cases.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Oncology
    • Nephrology
    • Surgical Oncology

    Context:

    • Wilms' tumor is a common pediatric kidney cancer.
    • Partial nephrectomy is a kidney-sparing surgical technique.
    • Management of bilateral or single-kidney Wilms' tumor presents unique challenges.

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the outcomes of partial nephrectomy in children with Wilms' tumors affecting a single or bilateral kidneys.
    • To compare the long-term efficacy of partial nephrectomy in Wilms' tumors on otherwise normal kidneys versus kidneys with diffuse nephroblastomatosis.

    Summary:

    • The study analyzed 18 partial nephrectomies in 12 children with Wilms' tumors. Short-term results were good, with one technical failure.
    • Long-term outcomes were excellent for Wilms' tumors on healthy kidneys, showing no recurrence.

  • Conversely, kidneys with diffuse nephroblastomatosis invariably experienced tumor recurrence after partial nephrectomy.

    • Impact:

    • Partial nephrectomy is a viable option for Wilms' tumors on otherwise healthy kidneys, offering excellent long-term oncologic control.
    • The high rate of recurrence in diffuse nephroblastomatosis suggests this approach may be less suitable for such cases.
    • Findings support the selective use of partial nephrectomy in specific pediatric Wilms' tumor scenarios, balancing kidney preservation with oncologic safety.
