Abstract
- Wilms tumor is rare in adults, constituting only 0.5% of all renal masses. Tumors in adults are diagnosed later than those in children, and survival after treatment is still low. Some reasons for this are considered as patients not receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy before surgery and late initiation of treatment due to delays in receiving pathology results. In this paper, we present a 38-year-old male patient diagnosed with Wilms tumor after percutaneous biopsy and review the related literature.
