Abstract
|
|
|
Extrarenal Wilms¡¯ tumor is an extremely rare solid tumor in childhood. The most common location is the retroperitoneum or inguinal area. The diagnosis should be made by histologic confirmation of Wilms¡¯ tumor of extrarenal origin and by excluding the existence of supernumerary kidney or embryogenic tumor with teratomatous components. We report a 4 year-old boy with retroperitoneal extrarenal Wilms¡¯ tumor, considered to be the second case reported in Korea, who has been relapse-free for 26 months after the completion of chemotherapy. We also made a brief review of the literatures.
