The National Wilms Tumor Study currently describes 3 indications for the use of preoperative chemotherapy: extensive caval involvement, bilateral tumors, and patients who only have a single kidney. However, the management of patients who present with a contained retroperitoneal rupture is not specifically addressed. This is relevant because of the strong possibility of peritoneal contamination when performing a primary resection and the resultant requirement for total abdominal radiation. The use of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in this subgroup of patients may be warranted.
