Multimodality detection of tumour rupture in children with Wilms tumour.

Background And Aims: Tumour rupture (TR) signifies stage III disease and requires treatment intensification, which includes radiotherapy. We studied the associations between radiological, surgical and pathology TR in children with Wilms tumour (WT) in a United Kingdom multicentre clinical study.

Patients And Methods: The IMPORT (Improving Population Outcomes for Renal Tumours of Childhood) study registered 712 patients between 2012 and 2021.

Targeted therapies in children with renal cell carcinoma (RCC): An International Society of Pediatric Oncology-Renal Tumor Study Group (SIOP-RTSG)-related retrospective descriptive study.

Introduction: Introduction: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a very rare pediatric renal tumor. Robust evidence to guide treatment is lacking and knowledge on targeted therapies and immunotherapy is mainly based on adult studies. Currently, the International Society of Pediatric Oncology-Renal Tumor Study Group (SIOP-RTSG) 2016 UMBRELLA protocol recommends sunitinib for metastatic or unresectable RCC.

Bevacizumab-containing treatment for relapsed or refractory Wilms tumor.

Introduction: Angiogenesis is critical for tumor growth and metastasis. Bevacizumab is an antiangiogenic drug used to treat various adult and childhood solid tumors. Its potential efficacy in Wilms tumor (WT) with poor prognosis is not established.

Performing [F]MFBG Long-Axial-Field-of-View PET/CT Without Sedation or General Anesthesia for Imaging of Children with Neuroblastoma.

Meta-[I]iodobenzylguanidine ([I]MIBG) scintigraphy with SPECT/CT is the standard of care for diagnosing and monitoring neuroblastoma. Replacing [I]MIBG with the new PET tracer meta-[F]fluorobenzylguanidine ([F]MFBG) and further improving sensitivity and reducing noise in a new long-axial-field-of-view (LAFOV) PET/CT scanner enable increased image quality and a faster acquisition time, allowing examinations to be performed without sedation or general anesthesia (GA). Focusing on feasibility, we present our first experience with [F]MFBG LAFOV PET/CT and compare it with [I]MIBG scintigraphy plus SPECT/CT for imaging in neuroblastoma in children.
