Abstract
Pediatric renal tumors are among the most common pediatric solid malignancies. Surgical resection is a key component in the multidisciplinary therapy for children with kidney tumors. Therefore, it is imperative that surgeons caring for children with renal tumors fully understand the current standards of care in order to provide appropriate surgical expertise within this multimodal framework. Fortunately, the last 60 years of international, multidisciplinary pediatric cancer cooperative group studies have enabled high rates of cure for these patients. This review will highlight the international surgical approaches to pediatric patients with kidney cancer to help surgeons understand the key differences and similarities between the European (International Society of Pediatric Oncology) and North American (Children's Oncology Group) recommendations.

Abstract
Bilateral Wilms tumour (BWT) is a surgically challenging condition. Virtual reality (VR) reconstruction aids surgeons to foresee the anatomy ahead of Nephron Sparing Surgery (NSS). Three-dimensional (3D) visualisation improves the anatomical orientation of surgeons performing NSS. We herewith report a case of BWT where VR planning and 3D printing were used to aid NSS. Conventional imaging is often found to be inadequate while assessing the tumour-organ-vascular anatomy. Advances like VR and 3D printing help surgeons plan better for complex surgeries like bilateral NSS. Next-generation extended reality tools will likely aid robotic-assisted precision NSS and improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
The central question of nephron-sparing surgery in unilateral non-syndromic Wilms tumour sits at a crossroads between surgery, oncology, and nephrology. There has been a significant paradigm shift in paediatric oncology towards reducing toxicity and addressing long-term treatment-related sequalae amongst childhood cancer survivors. After paediatric nephrectomy and 30-50 years of follow-up, 40% of patients will have chronic kidney disease, including 22% with hypertension and 23% with albuminuria. It is difficult to predict which patients will progress to develop hypertension, reduced glomerular filtration rate, albuminuria, and a higher cardiovascular risk. For these reasons, nephron-sparing surgery when it is technically feasible must be considered. To decrease the incidence of positive surgical margins (viable tumour present at a resection margin), incomplete lymph node sampling, and complications, these procedures should be performed at specialist and experienced reference centres. Based on the impacts of individual treatment pathways, survivors of childhood WT need to be followed through adulthood for early detection of chronic kidney disease, hypertension, and prevention of cardiovascular events.

Abstract
The breadth of pediatric surgical practice and variety of anatomic anomalies that characterize surgical disease in children and neonates require a unique level of operative mastery and versatility. Intraoperative navigation of small, complex, and often abnormal anatomy presents a particular challenge for pediatric surgeons. Clinical experience with fluorescent tissue dye, specifically indocyanine green (ICG), is quickly gaining widespread incorporation into adult surgical practice as a safe, non-toxic means of accurately visualizing tissue perfusion, lymphatic flow, and biliary anatomy to enhance operative speed, safety, and patient outcomes. Experience in pediatric surgery, however, remains limited. ICG-fluorescence guided surgery is poised to address the challenges of pediatric and neonatal operations for a growing breadth of surgical pathology. Fluorescent angiography has permitted intraoperative visualization of colorectal flap perfusion for complex pelvic reconstruction and anastomotic perfusion after esophageal atresia repair, while its hepatic absorption and biliary excretion has made it an excellent agent for delineating the dissection plane in the Kasai portoenterostomy and identifying both primary and metastatic hepatoblastoma lesions. Subcutaneous and intra-lymphatic ICG injection can identify iatrogenic chylous leaks and improved yields in sentinel lymph node biopsies. ICG-guided surgery holds promise for more widespread use in pediatric surgical conditions, and continued evaluation of efficacy will be necessary to better inform clinical practice and identify where to focus and develop this technical resource.

Abstract
To evaluate the efficiency and long-term renal function of nephron sparing surgery (NSS) in unilateral WT patients compared with radical nephrectomy (RN). The review was performed following Cochrane Handbook guidelines and Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). We searched five databases (Pubmed, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science and Cochrane) for studies reporting the efficiency and late renal function of NSS and/or RN on February 10, 2023. Comparative studies were evaluated by Risk of Bias in Non-randomized Studies of Interventions (ROBINS-I) and RoB 2.0. Assessed outcomes included survival rate, relapse rate, eGFR, renal dysfunction and hypertension. 26 studies involving 10322 unilateral WT cases underwent RN and 657 unilateral WT cases underwent NSS were enrolled. Overall effect estimates demonstrated that NSS significantly increased eGFR at follow-up (SMD, 0.38; 95% CI 0.05-0.72; p = 0.025) compared to that at diagnosis, and RN did not significantly decrease eGFR at follow-up (SMD, - 0.33; 95% CI - 0.77-0.11; p = 0.142) compared to that at diagnosis. Moreover, no significant difference was found in outcomes of survivability (OR, 1.38; 95% CI 0.82-2.32; p = 0.226), recurrence (OR, 0.62; 95% CI 0.34-1.12; p = 0.114), eGFR at follow-up (SMD, 0.16; 95% CI - 0.36-0.69; p = 0.538), renal dysfunction (OR, 0.36; 95% CI 0.07-1.73; p = 0.200) and hypertension (OR, 0.17; 95% CI 0.03-1.10; p = 0.063). Current evidence suggests that NSS is safe and effective for unilateral WT patients, because it causes better renal function and similar oncological outcomes compared with RN. Future efforts to conduct more high-quality studies and explore sources of heterogeneity is recommended.

Abstract
The treatment of bilateral Wilms tumors (BWT) involves curing the cancer, preserving long-term renal function, and maintaining a good quality of life. Established methods for achieving these goals include preoperative chemotherapy and nephron-sparing surgery (NSS). This study aimed to evaluate the experience of a single institution in treating patients with BWT. We analyzed cases of BWT treated at the Pediatric Oncology Institute-GRAACC-Federal University of São Paulo over a period of 35 years. Bleeding control was performed with manual compression of the renal parenchyma. Thirty-three patients were included in the study. Thirty cases were synchronous tumors. The mean age at diagnosis was 30.4 months (±22 m) and 66.7% were girls. The median follow-up period was 83 months. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy was the primary approach in most patients (87.9%), with a simultaneous upfront surgical approach performed in 84.8%. Most patients underwent bilateral NSS (70.4%). There were no early complications in this series, but 39.4% had clinical complications. The five-year survival rate was 76%. Therefore, it is clear that the surgical approach to BWT plays a crucial role in achieving good outcomes. However, it is difficult to standardize surgical techniques and technology may have the potential to enhance safety.

Abstract
AIM This study aims to explore the application of RENAL nephrometry scoring system in bilateral Wilms tumor (BWT). METHODS A retrospective review of patients with BWT from January 2010 to June 2022 was performed. Each kidney unit of the BWT was evaluated independently and scored according to RENAL nephrometry scoring system by 2 blinded reviewers, and reviewers were blinded to what surgery the patients ultimately had. Discrepancies were evaluated by a third reviewer to reach a consensus. Tumor anatomical characteristics were summarized and compared. RESULTS 29 patients with 53 kidney units were included in the study. 53 kidney units included 12 (22.6%) low-complexity, 9 (17.0%) intermediate-complexity, and 32 (60.4%) high-complexity. 2 kidney units (3.8%) had tumor thrombus, and 14 (26.4%) had multiple lesions. A total of 42 kidney units (79.2%) underwent initial nephron-sparing surgery (NSS) and 11 (20.8%) underwent radical nephrectomy. Less complexity tumors were observed in the NSS group. Of the 42 kidney units undergoing initial NSS, 26 were performed in vivo and 16 ex vivo via autotransplantation. The latter group featured a higher complexity. During follow-up, 22 patients survived and 7 died, no statistically significant tumor complexity was observed between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS The anatomical characteristics of BWT are complex. Despite this study did not indicate that the complexity correlates with prognosis, low-complexity tumors were candidates for NSS, and kidney autotransplantation provided a feasible procedure for high-complexity tumors. A refined system is required due to multiple lesions and tumor thrombus.

Late Health Outcomes Among Survivors of Wilms Tumor Diagnosed Over Three Decades: A Report From the Childhood Cancer Survivor Study. J Clin Oncol 2023; 41:2638-2650.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate long-term morbidity and mortality among unilateral, nonsyndromic Wilms tumor (WT) survivors according to conventional treatment regimens. METHODS Cumulative incidence of late mortality (≥ 5 years from diagnosis) and chronic health conditions (CHCs) were evaluated in WT survivors from the Childhood Cancer Survivor Study. Outcomes were evaluated by treatment, including nephrectomy combined with vincristine and actinomycin D (VA), VA + doxorubicin + abdominal radiotherapy (VAD + ART), VAD + ART + whole lung radiotherapy, or receipt of ≥ 4 chemotherapy agents. RESULTS Among 2,008 unilateral WT survivors, 142 deaths occurred (standardized mortality ratio, 2.9, 95% CI, 2.5 to 3.5; 35-year cumulative incidence of death, 7.8%, 95% CI, 6.3 to 9.2). The 35-year cumulative incidence of any grade 3-5 CHC was 34.1% (95% CI, 30.7 to 37.5; rate ratio [RR] compared with siblings 3.0, 95% CI, 2.6 to 3.5). Survivors treated with VA alone had comparable risk for all-cause late mortality relative to the general population (standardized mortality ratio, 1.0; 95% CI, 0.5 to 1.7) and modestly increased risk for grade 3-5 CHCs compared with siblings (RR, 1.5; 95% CI, 1.1 to 2.0), but remained at increased risk for intestinal obstruction (RR, 9.4; 95% CI, 3.9 to 22.2) and kidney failure (RR, 11.9; 95% CI, 4.2 to 33.6). Magnitudes of risk for grade 3-5 CHCs, including intestinal obstruction, kidney failure, premature ovarian insufficiency, and heart failure, increased by treatment group intensity. CONCLUSION With approximately 40% of patients with newly diagnosed WT currently treated with VA alone, the burden of late mortality/morbidity in future decades is projected to be lower than that for survivors from earlier eras. Nevertheless, the risk of late effects such as intestinal obstruction and kidney failure was elevated across all treatment groups, and there was a dose-dependent increase in risk for all grade 3-5 CHCs by treatment group intensity.

Abstract
The algorithm that has been used successfully in the surgical management of unilateral Wilms tumor, radical nephroureterectomy, cannot be used in children who present with synchronous bilateral renal masses. Instead, a surgical approach that removes all tumor masses while preserving as much normal renal parenchyma as possible is encouraged to avoid acute and long-term renal insufficiency. We will review technical aspects of the conduct of nephron-sparing surgery for synchronous bilateral Wilms tumor, including the more recent advances in the use of imaging adjuncts such as pre-operative 3D imaging and fluorescence-guided surgery. The potential role of nephron-sparing surgery for unilateral Wilms tumor will also be discussed.

Evidence-based surgical guidelines for treating children with Wilms tumor in low-resource settings. Pediatr Blood Cancer 2022; 69:e29906.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Survival of Wilms tumor (WT) is > 90% in high-resource settings but < 30% in low-resource settings. Adapting a standardized surgical approach to WT is challenging in low-resource settings, but a local control strategy is crucial to improving outcomes. OBJECTIVE Provide resource-sensitive recommendations for the surgical management of WT. METHODS We performed a systematic review of PubMed and EMBASE through July 7, 2020, and used the GRADE approach to assess evidence and recommendations. RECOMMENDATIONS Initiation of treatment should be expedited, and surgery should be done in a high-volume setting. Cross-sectional imaging should be done to optimize preoperative planning. For patients with typical clinical features of WT, biopsy should not be done before chemotherapy, and neoadjuvant chemotherapy should precede surgical resection. Also, resection should include a large transperitoneal laparotomy, adequate lymph node sampling, and documentation of staging findings. For WT with tumor thrombus in the inferior vena cava, neoadjuvant chemotherapy should be given before en bloc resection of the tumor and thrombus and evaluation for viable tumor thrombus. For those with bilateral WT, neoadjuvant chemotherapy should be given for 6-12 weeks. Neither routine use of complex hilar control techniques during nephron-sparing surgery nor nephron-sparing resection for unilateral WT with a normal contralateral kidney is recommended. When indicated, postoperative radiotherapy should be administered within 14 days of surgery. Post-chemotherapy pulmonary oligometastasis should be resected when feasible, if local protocols allow omission of whole-lung irradiation in patients with nonanaplastic histology stage IV WT with pulmonary metastasis without evidence of extrapulmonary metastasis. CONCLUSION We provide evidence-based recommendations for the surgical management of WT, considering the benefits/risks associated with limited-resource settings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Indocyanine green (ICG), a water-soluble tricarbocyanine fluorophore, is being increasingly used for tumor localization based on its passive intra-tumoral accumulation due to enhanced permeability and retention in tumor tissue. Therefore, we hypothesized that ICG can provide contrast to facilitate accurate, real-time recognition of renal tumors at the time of nephron-sparing surgery in children. METHODS This retrospective study examined the feasibility of ICG in guiding nephron-sparing surgery for pediatric renal tumors. RESULTS We reviewed the medical records of 8 pediatric patients with renal tumors in 12 kidneys. Intraoperative localization of tumor with near infrared guidance was successful in all 12 kidneys. However, we consistently found an inverse pattern of near infrared signal in which the normal kidney demonstrated increased fluorescent signal relative to the kidney tumor. CONCLUSIONS Fluorescence-guided renal tumor delineation is unique because it has an inverse pattern of near infrared signal in which the normal kidney demonstrates increased signal relative to the adjacent tumor. Nevertheless fluorescence-guided distinguishing of renal tumor from surrounding normal kidney is feasible.

Abstract
PURPOSE Postoperative period after abdominal solid tumor surgery is critical regarding complications. This study aimed to detect incidence and treatment of complications. METHODS Single center retrospective study including years 2010-2019 for early postoperative complications were documented and graded according to Clavian-Dindo classification. RESULTS The overall complication rate was 10% and they were chylous leak (n = 8, 2%), collection in surgical field (n = 8, 2%), acute renal failure (n = 7, 1.7%), hemorrhage (n = 5, 1.3%), intestinal obstruction (n = 4, 1%), surgical site infection (n = 3, 0.7%), thromboembolism (n = 3, 0.7%) and peripheric neuronal event (n = 2, 0.5%). Distribution of complications according to Clavian-Dindo classification was as follows: 2 grade I, 23 grade II, 9 grade IIIb, 5 grade IVa and 1 grade V. While age and percentage of benign or malignant disease were not different in groups with or without complications (p = 0.11, p = 0.24), males had more complications than female patients (p = 0.008). Having more than one surgery aiming tumor resection was associated with increased postoperative complications (p = 0.002). Incidence of complications were highest after extragonadal germ cell tumor (35%) and hepatic tumors (29%). CONCLUSIONS Postoperative complications of abdominal tumor surgery are diverse in children. They are related with prolonged hospital stay and need for medical or surgical interventions. Number of surgeries, organ of origin and tumor type have an influence on risk of complications.

Abstract
Background With the development of medical technology and the innovation of various surgical options, the survival time of children with nephroblastoma is significantly prolonged. However, postoperative pain and stress response have been plagued by children with nephroblastoma during the postoperative treatment. At present, there is still a lack of effective care programs. Methods We accessed our institutional database to retrospectively screen clinical data from all children with nephroblastoma who were surgically treated in our hospital between July 2020 and July 2021. Some children received routine care, while others received Orem-based self-care theory and active pain assessment. Results According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 150 children with nephroblastoma who underwent surgical treatment were included in this study. On the third day after surgery, the scores of pain control effect and satisfaction degree of pain education in the study group were higher than those in the control group, and the physical and daily life influence, emotion influence, and pain experienced in the study group were lower than those in the control group. The differences were statistically significant (p < 0.001). There was no significant difference in C-SUPPH and ESCA scores between the two groups before nursing (p > 0.05). After nursing, the C-SUPPH and ESCA scores of the two groups were higher than those before nursing, and the C-SUPPH and ESCA scores of the study group were higher than those of the control group (p < 0.05). Before nursing, the levels of ACTH, Cor, and ANP between the two groups were not statistically significant (p > 0.05). The levels of ACTH, Cor, and ANP in the two groups were lower than those before nursing and 3 d and 7 d after nursing, and the index levels after 7 d of nursing were lower than those after 3 d of nursing. After nursing, the levels of ACTH, Cor, and ANP in the study group at each time point were lower than those in the control group (p < 0.05). There was no significant difference in SAS and SDS scores between the two groups before nursing (p > 0.05). After nursing, the SAS and SDS scores of both groups were lower than those before nursing, and the SAS and SDS scores of the study group were lower than those of the control group (p < 0.05). There was no significant difference in PSQI scores between the two groups before nursing (p > 0.05). After nursing, the PSQI scores of the two groups were lower than those before nursing, and the PSQI scores of the study were lower than those of the control group (p < 0.05). The average daily crying time, the average hospitalization time, and postoperative off-bed time in the study group were shorter than those in the control group (p < 0.05). Conclusion Orem’s self-care theory combined with active pain assessment can reduce pain in children undergoing nephroblastoma surgery, improve their stress response and psychological state, and improve their sleep quality, which is conducive to postoperative recovery and worthy of promotion.

Abstract
Radical nephrectomy combined with contemporary chemotherapeutic and radiation therapy protocols has drastically improved outcomes for children with Wilms tumor. Patients with bilateral disease and a syndrome predisposing to tumor development have necessitated the use of nephron-sparing surgery in select cases. Success in managing these patients has increased the indication for partial nephrectomy, although current guidelines for unilateral Wilms tumor are limited. Given that children are being cured with increasing success, recent focus has shifted to long-term health outcomes in addition to tumor treatment. Specifically, renal function has an impact on long-term cardiovascular health and events. Adult outcomes with partial nephrectomy provide a guideline for a paradigm shift in the management of children with Wilms tumor, particularly with advances in imaging and adjuvant therapy. The data are limited for children undergoing partial nephrectomy for unilateral Wilms tumor and outcomes for larger tumors will need to be studied closely in future trials. Increased utilization of neoadjuvant chemotherapy could further expand the number of patients eligible for partial nephrectomy.

Abstract
Nephron-sparing surgery (NSS) in Wilms tumor (WT) patients is a surgically challenging procedure used in highly selective cases only. Virtual resections can be used for preoperative planning of NSS to estimate the remnant renal volume (RRV) and to virtually mimic radical tumor resection. In this single-center evaluation study, virtual resection for NSS planning and the user experience were evaluated. Virtual resection was performed in nine WT patient cases by two pediatric surgeons and one pediatric urologist. Pre- and postoperative MRI scans were used for 3D visualization. The virtual RRV was acquired after performing virtual resection and a questionnaire was used to assess the ease of use. The actual RRV was derived from the postoperative 3D visualization and compared with the derived virtual RRV. Virtual resection resulted in virtual RRVs that matched nearly perfectly with the actual RRVs. According to the questionnaire, virtual resection appeared to be straightforward and was not considered to be difficult. This study demonstrated the potential of virtual resection as a new planning tool to estimate the RRV after NSS in WT patients. Future research should further evaluate the clinical relevance of virtual resection by relating it to surgical outcome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Wilms tumor is a highly heritable malignancy. Aberrant METTL14, a critical component of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methyltransferase, is involved in carcinogenesis. The association between genetic variants in the METTL14 gene and Wilms tumor susceptibility remains to be fully elucidated. We aimed to assess whether variants within this gene are implicated in Wilms tumor susceptibility. METHODS A total of 403 patients and 1198 controls were analyzed. METTL14 genotypes were assessed by TaqMan genotyping assay. RESULT Among the five SNPs analyzed, rs1064034 T > A and rs298982 G > A exhibited a significant association with decreased susceptibility to Wilms tumor. Moreover, the joint analysis revealed that the combination of five protective genotypes exerted significantly more protective effects against Wilms tumor than 0-4 protective genotypes with an OR of 0.69. The stratified analysis further identified the protective effect of rs1064034 T > A, rs298982 G > A, and combined five protective genotypes in specific subgroups. The above significant associations were further validated by haplotype analysis and false-positive report probability analysis. Preliminary mechanism exploration indicated that rs1064034 T > A and rs298982 G > A are correlated with the expression and splicing event of their surrounding genes. CONCLUSIONS Collectively, our results suggest that METTL14 gene SNPs may be genetic modifiers for the development of Wilms tumor.

J Gene Med 2021; 23:e3348. [PMID: 33894035 DOI: 10.1002/jgm.3348] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2020] [Revised: 03/11/2021] [Accepted: 04/21/2021] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Wilms tumor is the most frequently occurring renal malignancy in pediatrics. The FTO gene exhibits a featured genetic contribution to cancer development. Nonetheless, its single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) contribution to Wilms tumor remains unknown. METHODS In the present study, 402 Wilms tumor patients and 1198 healthy controls were successfully genotyped for FTO gene SNPs (rs1477196 G>A, rs9939609 T>A, rs7206790 C>G and rs8047395 A>G) using TaqMan SNP genotyping assays. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs), generated from unconditional logistic regression, were applied to quantify the effects of FTO gene SNPs on Wilms tumor risk. RESULTS We found that the rs8047395 A>G polymorphism was significantly correlated with an increased risk for Wilms tumor (GG versus AA/AG: adjusted OR = 1.38, 95% CI = 1.04-1.85, p = 0.027). Carriers with 1 and 1-2 risk genotypes are more susceptible of developing Wilms tumor than those without risk genotypes. Stratified analysis of rs8047395 and risk genotypes revealed more significant relationships with Wilms tumor risk in certain subgroups. Preliminary functional annotations revealed that the rs8047395 A allele increases expression levels of the FTO gene as determined by expression quantitative trait locus analysis. CONCLUSIONS The present study provides evidence that rs8047395 may regulate FTO gene expression and thus confer susceptibility to Wilms tumor. The candidate FTO gene rs8047395 A>G polymorphism identified in this study warrants independent investigation.

Chen H, Yang S, Qian C. Effectiveness of Nephron Sparing Surgery and Radical Nephrectomy in the Management of Unilateral Wilms Tumor: A Meta-Analysis. Front Oncol 2020; 10:1248. [PMID: 33014769 PMCID: PMC7498664 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2020.01248] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2020] [Accepted: 06/17/2020] [Indexed: 01/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Unilateral Wilms tumor is the most common renal malignancy in the pediatric population. Although the onset of surgical intervention like radical nephrectomy has substantially reduced the mortality rate, recent evidence has raised concerns regarding several postoperative complications associated with this procedure. Nephron sparing surgery has been reported to avoid such postoperative complications and have high technical success rate. However, no attempt to date has been made to synthesize the evidence comparing the efficacy of radical nephrectomy and nephron sparing surgery for managing unilateral Wilms tumor. Methods and Results: To metastatistically compare the efficiency of radical nephrectomy with nephron sparing surgery for managing unilateral Wilms tumor, a systematic identification of the literature was performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses guidelines on four academic databases: MEDLINE, Scopus, EMBASE, and CENTRAL. A meta-analysis comparing renal function (estimated glomerular filtration rate), survival rate, and rate of relapse was performed to compare the efficacy of radical nephrectomy and nephron sparing surgery. Out of 1,283 records, 20 articles including 5,246 children (mean age, 4.3 ± 3.0 years) were included in this review. Radical nephrectomy was performed on 11 of the included studies, whereas nephron sparing surgery was performed on five studies. Two studies compared the efficacy of both interventions. The meta-analysis reveals the beneficial effects of nephron sparing surgery (Hedge's g, 0.76) as compared to radical nephrectomy (-0.16) for the estimated glomerular filtration rate for children with unilateral Wilms tumor. Moreover, higher survivability (0.59) and lesser occurrence of relapse were (-1.0) also reported for cases operated with nephron sparing surgery. Conclusion: The current meta-analysis recommends the use of nephron sparing surgery for unilateral Wilms tumor. The procedure accounts for higher survivability and postoperative renal function and lesser incidence of relapse as compared to radical nephrectomy.

Abstract
Predisposing syndromes associated with an increased risk of Wilms tumor (WT) are responsible for 9–17% of all cases of the malignancy. Due to an earlier age at WT diagnosis and an increased incidence of bilateral and metachronous disease, management of syndromic WT warrants a distinct approach from that of non-syndromic WT. This review of English-language manuscripts about WT focuses on the most common syndromes, surveillance protocols and current treatment strategies. Highlighted syndromes include those associated with WT1, such as WAGR (Wilms-Aniridia-Genitourinary-mental Retardation), Denys-Drash syndrome (DDS), and Frasier syndrome, 11p15 defects, such as Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS), among others. General surveillance guidelines include screening renal or abdominal ultrasound every 3–4 months until the age of 5 or 7, depending on the syndrome. Further, some of the predisposing conditions also increase the risk of other malignancies, such as gonadoblastoma and hepatoblastoma. With promising results for nephron-sparing surgery in bilateral non-syndromic WT, there are increasing reports and recommendations to pursue nephron-sparing for these patients who are at greater risk of bilateral, metachronous lesions. In addition to the loss of renal parenchyma from malignancy, many patients are at risk of developing renal insufficiency as part of their syndrome. Although there may be some increase in the complication rate, recurrence free survival seems equivalent. Some conditions require specialized approaches to adjuvant therapy, as their syndrome may make them especially susceptible to side effects.

[PMID: 32504654 DOI: 10.1016/j.gene.2020.144839] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2020] [Revised: 05/16/2020] [Accepted: 06/01/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Wilms tumor is the most frequently occurring pediatric renal malignancy. Wilms tumor suppressor-1-associated protein (WTAP) is a vital component of N6-methyltransferase complex involved in tumorigenesis. However, the roles of WTAP gene single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in Wilms tumor risk have not been clarified to date. We successfully genotyped three WTAP gene SNPs using TaqMan assay in 405 Wilms tumor patients and 1197 cancer-free controls of Chinese children. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were applied to determine the effects of WTAP gene SNPs on Wilms tumor risk. Carriers of the rs1853259 G variant are less susceptible to developing Wilms tumor, with an adjusted OR of 0.78 (AG vs. AA: 95% CI = 0.61-0.995, P = 0.046). Single locus analysis of rs9457712 G > A and rs7766006 G > T, as well as the combined analysis of risk genotypes, failed to unveil an association with Wilms tumor risk, respectively. Stratified analysis of the three SNPs and their combined risk effects showed more significant relationships with Wilms tumor risk under certain subgroups. In all, we found weak evidence of the association between WTAP gene SNPs and the risk of Wilms tumor. Further replication studies with greater sample size and different ethnicities are necessary to verify our findings.
