An X-linked gene that undergoes inactivation in roughly 15–20% of cases.
Most commonly diagnosed in children under 5 years old; rare after age 5.
Frontiers in Immunology (2025). NK cell-related genes-driven novel molecular subtyping and prognostic signatures for Wilms tumor.
About 10% of cases are associated with congenital anomalies (e.g., WAGR syndrome, Denys-Drash syndrome, Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome). 2. Pathophysiology and Molecular Genetics (New Insights)
: Indicated for Stage III favorable histology and Stages I-III focal anaplasia.
Malignant embryonal renal tumor arising from metanephric blastema.
: Avoiding capsule rupture is critical, as intraoperative spillage upgrades the patient to Stage III.
: Most cases are sporadic, but ~10% are associated with genetic syndromes. Key Syndromes WAGR Syndrome
The field of Wilms tumor research is rapidly evolving, with several exciting developments in the past year.
