Non-Wilms Renal Tumours in Children: The Republic of Ireland Experience
: NWRTs comprised 17.5% of all paediatric renal tumours diagnosed nationally during the study period and demonstrated marked heterogeneity in outcomes according to histological subtype. CMN showed excellent survival with six out of seven requiring surgery alone, whereas MRTK remained associated with dismal outcomes despite multimodal therapy. These national data support histology-driven, risk-adapted management and highlight the importance of continued international collaboration to improve outcomes in NWRTs.
