4 - peds oncology Flashcards
% wilms bilateral?
5%
MCDK is a risk factor for what? and caveat
wilms tumor - would have to do 2,000 prophylactic nx for one prevention
what is WT1 gene
deletion of 11p13
what is WT2 gene
loss of heterozygosity of 11p15
non WT gene abnormality seen in wilms and sig
1p and 16q loss of heterozygosity - inc risk of death/ relapse
names of 3 genetic syndromes assd w wilms
WAGR, denys drash, beckwith wiedemann
what is WAGR
wilms, aniridia, genital abnormalities, MR
gene for WAGR
WT1
What is denys drash
male pseudohermaphroditism, renal masangial scleosis (renal failure), Wilms
gene for denys drash
WT1
what is beckwith Wiedmann
macroglossia, hemihypertrophy
gene for beckwith wiedman
WT2
beckith wiedman % risk of wilms
4-10%
what is classic triphasic histology in wilms
(epithelial, blastemal, stromal)
difference btw favorable and unfavorable wilms histology
favorable has triphasic histology (epithelial, blastemal, stromal). Unfavorable - anaplasia
significance of unfavorable wilms histology
chemo resistance and 50% death
intralobar vs perilobar nephrogenic rests assd with
INTRALOBAR - early in development. Assd w/ WAGR, denys drach. PERILOBAR - late in development, beckwith weidman syndrome and hemihypertrophy
what is nephroblastomatosis
clusters of persistent nephrogenic blastemal cells - histologically identical to wilms tumor
significance of nephroblastomatosis
high risk of wilms, esp bilateral wilms
important part of wilms presentation
kids look healthy
2 most common complication of surgery for wilms
bowel obstruciton and hemorrhage
% caval extension in wilms
4%
long term complication of doxorubicin
CHF at 20 yrs in 20%
most imp outcomes based on (2)
histopathology, tumor stage
wilms tumor staging called
NTWS (nitwit’s)
NTWS wilms stages
stage 1: confined, total resection. Stage 2: outside capsule, total resection. Stage 3: incomplete resecton or biopsy, any spill, + LN. Stage 4: hematogenous spread. Stage 5: bilateral tumors
tumor spillage increases recurrence by x?
6x
UNILATERAL wilms surgery caveats - 3
- transperitoneal nx, 2. don’t need to explore contralateral kidney (ct’s are better now), 3. selective LN sampling, not RPLND
UNILATERAL wilms recurrence RF’s - 4
tumor spillage, unfavorable histology, incomplete resection, absence of LN sampling
BILATERAL wilms surgery caveats
no open bx, just do upfront chemo for tumor shrinkage and pnx.
BILATERAL wilms Chemo mgmt
if response - do pnx. If NO response - bilateral open biopsy. At 2nd look PNX if 2/3 kidney can be preseerved. do NX if unfavorable histology or chemo failure
who gets neoadjuvant chemo in wilms - 4
bilateral, vascular invasion, unresectable tumor, solitary kidney
only group not getting radiation in NWTS protocol
stage 1 or 2 favorable or unfavorbale histology
late chemo effects in wilms tumor (4)
infertility, hypogonadism, 2nd malignancy, CHF (doxorubicin)
most common renal tumor of infancy
mesoblastic nephroma
mesoblastic nephroma tx
nx is curative
clear cell sarcoma - %, location of mets, and mgmt
3% kids renal tumors, bone mets common, multimodal tx needed
mesoblastic nephroma spec chemo
doxorubicin
rhabdoid renal tumors - %, location of mets, features
2% kids renal tumors, ** brain mets common**, very bad
why are rhabdoid renal masses so bad
chemo resistant, advanced stage, high mortality
kids RCC - when, subtype, incidence
most commin 2nd decade, papillary most common, 5% kids
neuroblastoma - incidence
most comm extracranial solid tumor in kids,
are mets common in neuroblastoma
yes - 50% with mets
where do mets present in neuroblastoma
presents anywhere along symp chain (75% retroperitoneum)
