TI  - Resection of the inferior vena cava for recurrent Wilms' tumor.
PG  - 121-2
AB  - Wilms' tumor is one of the most common solid tumors of childhood. Approximately 
      500 cases occur annually in the United States, and the overall incidence is 0.8 
      per 100,000 children per year. Direct involvement of the inferior vena cava 
      occurs in 5% to 10% of cases. The National Wilms' Tumor Study (NWTS), an 
      intergroup cooperative clinical trial, indicates that aggressive primary surgical 
      management combined with chemo-radiation therapy improves (with respect to both 
      survival and recurrence) the long-term prognosis for children who have extrarenal 
      involvement. In addition, aggressive surgical resection may further improve the 
      survival rate for patients with recurrent Wilms' tumor after initial multimodal 
      therapy.
