Abstract

Wilms tumor is the most common pediatric renal cancer, and lungs represent the major site of metastasis and recurrence. Relapse occurs in 15%, months or years after treatment; so due to the small sample, acquiring more data about the pattern of lung relapse remains a challenge. The aim of our study was to evaluate if pulmonary relapse, detected by computed tomography (CT), occurred at the initial site of lung metastases or in a different location. According to our data, the CT pattern of lung relapse showed high probability of recurrence at the same site of initial metastasis.
