Pediatric kidney tumor

Wilms tumor, also known as nephroblastoma, is a renal malignancy predominantly affecting children under the age of five. The etiology of Wilms tumor remains incompletely understood; however, it is associated with genetic predispositions, including family history, congenital malformations, and specific genetic syndromes. The most common symptom is an abdominal mass or swelling. Some children may present with hematuria, fever, gastrointestinal symptoms, weight loss or blood in the urine.

Management typically involves a multimodal approach, including surgical resection, chemotherapy, and, in some cases, radiotherapy, tailored to the tumor's stage and characteristics. The prognosis for Wilms tumor is generally favorable, with high survival rates, particularly in cases diagnosed at an early stage. Regular follow-up is essential for monitoring potential long-term effects and recurrence.
