Intracranial metastatic Wilms' tumor in children: a report of two cases
Abstract
Two cases are presented of children with intracranial metastasis from Wilms' tumor. Both patients had undergone nephrectomies for Wilms' tumor, one 19 months and the other 32 months prior to clinical presentation of intracranial metastasis. Computed tomographic examination in both cases demonstrated lesions that did not have any particularly unique features. Subsequent craniotomy and removal of the tumor in one case confirmed metastatic intracranial Wilms' tumor.
