Epithelial Predominant Wilms Tumor in an Adult Patient: Case Report and Literature Review

Although rare in adults, Wilms tumor is the most common pediatric renal tumor. Treatment typically involves radical nephrectomy followed by adjuvant chemotherapy or radiation, although outcomes differ between children and adults which may be due to challenges in accurately diagnosing these patients. In this article, we present a case report of an adult patient with Jeune syndrome and multiple urologic abnormalities who underwent radical nephrectomy for a large renal mass and was subsequently diagnosed with an epithelial predominant Wilms tumor. Epithelial predominant Wilms tumor may have distinct origins from other Wilms tumor histological subtypes and may incur better outcomes. Herein, we discuss the literature surrounding this rare entity as well as the anticipated treatment course.
