We describe a case of metastatic nephroblastoma presenting as renal rupture. Histology was "favorable". Lung metastases were discovered early during follow-up. Radiotherapy and surgical excision were therefore combined with intensive chemotherapy. Ten years later, the patient is symptom-free.

Dipeptidase 1 (DPEP1), initially identified as a renal membrane enzyme in mature human kidneys, plays a pivotal role in various cellular processes. It facilitates the exchange of materials and signal transduction across cell membranes, contributing significantly to dipeptide hydrolysis, glucose and lipid metabolism, immune inflammation, and ferroptosis, among other cellular functions. Extensive research has delineated the complex role of DPEP1 in oncogenesis and tumor progression, with its influence being context dependent.

Background: In the fifth National Wilms Tumor Study, patients received vincristine and dactinomycin (VA) without radiation for stage I focal anaplastic Wilms tumor (FAWT) and VA plus doxorubicin (DD4A) and radiation for stage II-IV FAWT. Four-year event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) for stage I FAWT were 67.5% and 88.

Background: The role of fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) in the diagnosis of renal malignancies is established and has been getting more precise and important over a period of time. Knowledge of the pathology of uncommon renal neoplasms along with radiological and clinical correlations often aids in correct diagnosis.
Aims: The present study aims to describe the cytomorphological and immunohistochemical findings in the varied spectrum of renal tumors, other than renal cell carcinomas (RCC).

Wilms tumor (WT) is the most common kidney cancer in infants and young children. The determination of the clonality of bilateral WTs is critical to the treatment, because lineage-independent and metastatic tumors may require different treatment strategies. Here we found synchronous bilateral WT (n = 24 tumors from 12 patients) responded differently to preoperative chemotherapy.

Background And Aims: Outcome analysis of patients with Wilms' tumors (WT) is presented.
Materials And Methods: A retrospective analysis of 23 children having WT managed by a single surgeon over 3 years (2021-2024) using the International Society of Paediatric Oncology Umbrella protocol was done.
Results: The median age at presentation was 36 months; 32 months and 24 months for the unilateral WT (uWT) ( = 19) and bilateral WT (bWT) ( = 4), respectively.
