23
Q

ARPKD

A

tiny cysts; bilaterall enlarged kidneys; hepatic fibrosis (not cysts)

24
Q

Most common renal neoplasm in pediatrics

A

Wilms tumor; age 3-5yo

25
Q

Tissue of origin for Wilms

A

metanephric blastema

26
Q

Associations with Wilms

A

Beckwith Widemann syndrome, WAGR, horeshoe kidney, Trisomy 18; regular ultrasounds until school age to screen for Wilms

27
Q

RCC occurs in what type of kids

A

VHL

28
Q

Renal medullary carcinoma is common in what type of patients

A

Sicle cell trait

29
Q

Rhabdoid tumor can also occur where

A

Brain; agressive ill defined renal mass

30
Q

Clear cell carcinoma metastases occurs

A

bone

31
Q

Most common pediatric malignancies that met to kidneys

A

lymphoma, leukemia, neuroblastoma

32
Q

Mesoblastic nephroma age group

A

benign tumor in kids <1 yo; appears similar to Wilms

33
Q

Tissue of origin for mesoblastic nephroma

A

metanephric blastema (same as Wilms)

34
Q

Nephroblastomatosis or nephrogenic rest

A

persistence of metanephric blastema; becomes “rest” when it persist beeyond 36 weeks gestation, Wilms tumor precursor

35
Q

Imaging findings of nephroblastomatosis

A

homogenous nonenhancing renal mass; multifocal, confluent and bilateral

36
Q

Benign solid pediatric renal masses

A

mesoblastic nephroma, nephroblastomatosis, AML

37
Q

Average age for neuroblastoma

A

2 yo

38
Q

Cells of origin for neuroblastoma

A

primitive neural crest malignancy from sympathetic chain

39
Q

Imaging findings of adrenal neuroblastoma

A

CXR: posterior mediastinal mass, bone mets
CT: encases vessels (Wilms displaces); calcifies (Wilms rarely calcifies)
MRI: invades neural foramina/spinal canal; diffusion restricts
NM: I123 scinitgraphy positive (utilize bone scan for mets)

Mets go to skin, liver, bone marrow

40
Q

Staging system for neuroblastoma

A

INSS based on midline crossing (left neuroblastoma midline is right lateral edge of vertebral body)

41
Q

Average age for ganglioneuroma

A

6yo; older than neuroblastoma and benign

42
Q

Imaging features of ganglioneuroma

A

appears similar to neuroblastoma
MRI: does not diffusion restrict (unlike neuroblastoma)
NM: only half are positive on I-123

43
Q

Imaging adrenal hemorrhage

A

may look like neuroblastoma but involutes; old hemorrhage may calcify; hypoechoic avascular suprarenal mass on US

found after birth trauma, stress, associated with scrotal hemorrhage

44
Q

Associations with adrenal cortical carcinoma
