Overview

Other diagnostic studies for Wilms tumor include PET scan and histology of biopsy samples taken.

Other Diagnostic Studies

Other diagnostic studies for Wilms tumor include:

  • PET scan[1]
    • 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-positron emission tomography (PET)-CT.
    • Wilms tumor is 18F-FDG avid, and 18F-FDG-PET-CT imaging adds clinically applicable information to conventional imaging.
    • This may be particularly helpful in patients with bilateral disease or those receiving preoperative chemotherapy.
    • 18F-FDG-PET-CT highlights FDG-avid areas in the tumor and metastases.
    • This corresponds to histologically confirmed active disease.
  • Biopsy


Wilms tumor histology The images show the characteristic three components: 1.Blastema component - Malignant small round (blue) cells ~ 2x the size of resting lymphocyte. 2.Epithelial component - Tubular structures/rosettes. 3.Stromal component - Loose paucicellular stroma with spindle cells.

    • The surgical examination and biopsy must be performed when:
      • If a case of Wilms tumor is suspected in North America, then nephrectomy is done immediately.
      • Contralateral kidney is also explored to check for disease and lymph node biopsies done.
      • Transcutaneous biopsy samples are almost never taken to prevent:
        • Tumor spill - If this occurs then whole abdomen radiotherapy has to be done.
•Tumor is seen in the upper pole of the kidney. •Well circumscribed lesion is seen with multiple necrotic, hemorrhagic and cystic changes. Source:By Abepathology [CC BY-SA 4.0 (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0)], from Wikimedia Commons[7]
