Hope and challenges in the diagnosis and treatment of Wilms tumor: a single-center retrospective study in China
Survival rates for WT patients at our institution approach those reported in developed countries. Challenges include late-stage diagnosis, metastasis at initial presentation, and treatment abandonment. To address these issues, implementing pediatric screening is critical for early detection and timely intervention, particularly for families vulnerable to abandoning treatment. For high-risk cases, oncologists need develop targeted strategies to enhance clinical outcomes.
