Abstract

The article examines the incidence and outcomes of hypertension at diagnosis in children with kidney tumors, providing insights from a substantial national retrospective cohort. It reports that 55 percent of children with a kidney tumor were hypertensive at diagnosis, with most having grade one hypertension. It is noted that there were no significant differences in hypertension occurrence based on gender or tumor subtypes.
