Objective: The incidence of Wilms' tumor (WT) among adult individuals accounts for less than 1% of kidney cancer cases, with a prognosis usually less favorable when compared to younger individuals and an overall survival rate of 70% for the adult patients versus 90% for the pediatric cases. The diagnosis and treatment of WT are complex in the preoperative setting; neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) or robotic surgery has rarely been described. This study aimed to review the literature of robotic surgery in WT and report the first adult WT man-agement using both NAC and robotic strategy.

Abstract

Objective: The incidence of Wilms' tumor (WT) among adult individuals accounts for less than 1% of kidney cancer cases, with a prognosis usually less favorable when compared to younger individuals and an overall survival rate of 70% for the adult patients versus 90% for the pediatric cases. The diagnosis and treatment of WT are complex in the preoperative setting; neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) or robotic surgery has rarely been described. This study aimed to review the literature of robotic surgery in WT and report the first adult WT man-agement using both NAC and robotic strategy.
