Vena Cava Thrombus in Patients with Wilms Tumor

Abstract

(1) Background: Vena cava thrombus (VCT) is rare in Wilms tumor (WT) (4–10%). The aim of this study is to identify factors for an outcome to improve treatment for better survival. (2) Methods: 148/3015 patients with WT (aged p p = 0.002). (4) Conclusions: As a result of our study, two risk factors for poor outcomes in WT patients with VCT emerge: diffuse anaplasia and metastatic disease, especially those with non-CR after PC.
