Extrarenal Wilms tumor: a case report and review of the literature

Yesenia Rojas et al. J Pediatr Surg. 2013 Jun.

Abstract

Extrarenal Wilms tumors are extremely rare with only isolated case reports in the pediatric literature. We present the case of a 2-year old boy who presented with a large abdominal mass and constipation. Pathologic diagnosis of the tumor was extrarenal Wilms tumor (ERWT) with favorable histology. We discuss the diagnostic workup, radiologic and operative findings, treatment and review of the literature.

Keywords: ERWT; Extrarenal Wilms tumor; Teratoma.
