विवरण
Wilms tumour is a form of kidney cancer that primarily develops in children. Nearly all cases of Wilms tumour are diagnosed before the age of 10, with two-thirds being found before age 5.
Wilms tumour is often first noticed because of abdominal swelling or a mass in the kidney that can be felt upon physical examination. Some affected children have abdominal pain, fever, a low number of red blood cells (anaemia), blood in the urine (hematuria), or high blood pressure (hypertension). Additional signs of Wilms tumour can include loss of appetite, weight loss, nausea, vomiting, and tiredness (lethargy).
Wilms tumour can develop in one or both kidneys. About 5 to 10 percent of affected individuals develop multiple tumours in one or both kidneys. Wilms tumour may spread from the kidneys to other parts of the body (metastasize). In rare cases, Wilms tumour does not involve the kidneys and occurs instead in the genital tract, bladder, abdomen, chest, or lower back. It is unclear how Wilms tumour develops in these tissues.
With proper treatment, children with Wilms tumour have a 90 percent survival rate. However, the risk that the cancer will come back (recur) is between 15 and 50 percent, depending on traits of the original tumour. Tumours usually recur in the first 2 years following treatment and develop in the kidneys or other tissues, such as the lungs. Individuals who have had Wilms tumour may experience related health problems or late effects of their treatment in adulthood, such as decreased kidney function, heart disease, and development of additional cancers.
