    Summary

    Wilms tumor is frequently diagnosed at advanced stages in children. Effective treatment involves polychemotherapy and irradiation, significantly improving survival rates for advanced Wilms tumor cases.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Oncology
    • Nephrology
    • Cancer Research

    Context:

    • Wilms tumor (nephroblastoma) is the most common primary renal malignancy in children.
    • This study evaluated 388 Wilms tumor cases over 13 years, focusing on disease staging, metastasis, and treatment outcomes.
    • A significant proportion of pediatric patients presented with advanced stage disease (II-IV).

    Purpose:

    • To analyze the staging, metastatic patterns, and survival rates of Wilms tumor in a pediatric cohort.
    • To evaluate the effectiveness of current therapeutic strategies, including polychemotherapy and irradiation.
    • To identify factors influencing prognosis and optimize treatment protocols for advanced Wilms tumor.

    Summary:

    • The study identified a high incidence of advanced Wilms tumor stages (II-IV) at diagnosis, with 40.5% presenting with detectable metastases.
    • Metastases were most common at stage III and often detected within the first year of therapy.
    • Survival rates after 3 years were 28.9% overall, with significant variations by stage (Stage II: 57.1%, Stage III: 25.4%, Stage IV: 4.6%).

    Impact:

    • Pre- and postoperative polychemotherapy for 1.5-2 years demonstrated efficacy.
    • Combined modality treatment, including irradiation for stage III tumors, improved 3-year survival rates to 69.5% for stage II and 32.3% for stage III.
    • Findings underscore the need for early detection and tailored treatment strategies for pediatric Wilms tumor to improve patient outcomes.
