pubmed:abstractText |
The presence of Wilms' tumor with a horseshoe kidney is an unusual combined clinical presentation. It has been reported that the incidence of Wilms' tumor in patients with horseshoe kidneys is higher than that seen in the general population. The current report describes a 5-year-old boy who presented with a stage III Wilms' tumor in a horseshoe kidney. The patient was treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by surgical resection, adjuvant chemotherapy, and radiation. The patient is disease free 40 months after diagnosis. A review of all reported cases of Wilms' tumor with horseshoe kidneys in the English-language literature before July 2002 is presented.
