- Differentiate COG (immediate nephrectomy) vs. SIOP (preoperative chemotherapy) approaches.
- Identify high-risk molecular markers (e.g., TP53 mutation in diffuse anaplasia).
- Apply new risk stratification for stage I–V tumors.
- Integrate emerging therapies (B7-H3 targeting, anti-VEGF).
- In SIOP protocols, preoperative chemo is given without biopsy in many cases; in COG practice, upfront nephrectomy is often done when feasible. Percutaneous biopsy is performed selectively (e.g., bilateral tumors, unresectable masses).
The clinical presentation often follows a predictable pattern: Wilms Tumor - StatPearls - NCBI Bookshelf - NIH This guide provides a structured framework for a
- Controversial: In the US/COG protocols, upfront biopsy is generally avoided (risk of spillage/upstaging) unless tumor is unresectable or bilateral. Diagnosis is confirmed at surgery.
