A Study on Treatment of Wilms' Tumor
|
|
|
|
|
Abstract
|
|
|
Wilms' tumor is the paradigm for multimodal treatment of a pediatric malignant solid tumor. Developments in surgical techniques and postoperative care, recognition of the sensitivity of Wilms' tumor to irradiation, and the availability of several
active
chemotherapeutic agents led to a dramatic change in the prognosis for most patients with this once uniformly lethal malignancy. This article presents four cases of Wilms' tumor managed at Chungnam National University Hospital and reviews current
treatment recommendations for patients with Wilms' tumor, based upon the results of the National Wilms' Tumor Studies.
