Kidney Tumor

Wilms’ tumor is the most common malignant kidney tumor found in children. The Horseshoe kidney is the most common renal fusion malformation. However, Wilms’ tumor is rarely identified in horseshoe kidney patients. Multimodal treatments in Wilms’ tumor can play important roles in increasing the survival rate. In this study, we report the case of a 6-year-old boy in whom a Wilms’ tumor was identified in a horseshoe kidney. The tumor was successfully treated with preoperative chemotherapy, followed by surgical resection.

Abstract OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical factors related to the prognosis of basal ganglia germ cell tumors. METHODS A retrospective analysis of 52 cases of the basal ganglia germ cell tumors treated from January 2009 to January 2019 in the department of oncology of Guangdong Sanjiu Brain Hospital. The median age: 12 years (range: 5–32), The median course of disease: 11.7 months (range: 1–54). Thirteen cases were diagnosed by biopsy and 39 cases were diagnosed by elevated tumor markers. There were 31 patients (59.6%) diagnosed with germinomas and 21 patients (40.4%) with non-germ germ cell tumors. Univariate and multivariate survival analysis was performed. RESULTS To October 15, 2019, the median follow-up time was 30.4 months (range 2–124 months). The 5-year survival rate was 85%, and the 5-year progression-free survival rate was 84%. Multivariate analysis found whether serum AFP was greater than 100mIU / ml, (with HR: 11.441,95% CI: 2.09–47.66, P = 0.005),the degree of surgical resection(with HR 5.323 (1.19–23.812), P = 0.029), PD as the effect of radiotherapy (HR: 16.53, (1.19–23.81), P = 0.001) were independent prognostic factor affecting survival. CONCLUSION The pathological type, degree of surgical resection, and response to initial treatment can all affect survival.

Careful Physical Examination

A series of 12 cases of Wilms' tumor, in which the diagnosis was confirmed in all instances by examination of the gross or microscopic tissue, is reported, with a survival rate of 33.3%. Four patients are living and well, 4, 8, 10, and 15 years, respectively, after treatment. All recurrences appeared less than 10 months after treatment. The sex incidence, and the sex survival incidence were exactly equal. Six tumors were in the left kidney, and six in the right. Eight of the patients were under 2 years of age when first diagnosed and treated, and all were under 7 years. The history of breast or bottle feeding was irrelevant. In a large number of these and reported cases, the presence of the tumor was the first symptom, and in a considerable number the only symptom. This fact stresses the importance of careful physical examination of infants and young children, regardless of complaint, or of lack of it. The finding of calcification in the tumor is possibly a good prognostic sign. All three patients in whom calcification was noted in the tumor are living and well. Immediate removal of the tumor by transperitoneal nephrectomy, with postoperative radiation to the area, seems to be the advisable treatment.

Colorectal cancer is a disease that is curable if diagnosed at early stage and also it is preventable if predisposing adenomas are detected and removed. Colorectal Carcinoma (CRC) is commonest malignancy of the gastrointestinal tract and is the second most usually diagnosed cancer in adults, mainly at 6th to 7th decades of life[2]. CT and MRI are the modalities of choice used for staging. Colonoscopy for better evaluation and tissue diagnosis as well as to see other occult lesion. Surgical resection may be curative although five-year survival rate is 40 - 50 %.
