Wilms’ Tumor Treatment in India
Trusted by Patients From 35+ Countries
What is Wilms’ Tumor?
Wilms’ Tumor, also known as nephroblastoma, is a rare type of kidney cancer that primarily affects children, usually under the age of 5. It typically develops in one kidney, though in rare cases it can affect both.
This condition often presents as a painless abdominal swelling and requires prompt diagnosis and treatment for the best outcomes.
This condition is common in premature infants and requires timely medical evaluation.
Why is Wilms’ Tumor Treatment Done?
Treatment is essential to:
- Remove the cancerous tumor from the kidney
- Prevent the spread (metastasis) to other organs
- Preserve kidney function as much as possible
- Improve survival rates and long-term health
- Reduce the risk of recurrence
Early and comprehensive treatment offers a very high cure rate in most children.
Who is an Eligible Candidate for Wilms’ Tumor Treatment in India?
Candidates for treatment include:
- Children diagnosed with kidney tumors through imaging or biopsy
- Patients showing symptoms such as abdominal swelling, pain, or blood in urine
- Children with genetic syndromes associated with Wilms’ Tumor
- Patients requiring specialized pediatric oncology care
Treatment eligibility and approach depend on the stage of cancer, tumor size, and overall health of the child.
Types of Wilms’ Tumor Treatment
Treatment usually involves a combination of therapies:
1. Surgery (Nephrectomy)
Removal of the affected kidney (partial or complete) to eliminate the tumor.
2. Chemotherapy
Anti-cancer drugs used to shrink the tumor before surgery or destroy remaining cancer cells after surgery.
3. Radiation Therapy
Used in advanced cases to target any remaining cancer cells.
4. Targeted Therapy
Advanced treatments aimed at specific cancer cell mechanisms (in select cases).
Treatment plans are personalized and managed by a multidisciplinary team of pediatric oncologists, surgeons, and radiologists.
Diagnostic Tests Done Before Wilms’ Tumor Treatment
To confirm diagnosis and determine staging, doctors may recommend:
- Physical examination
- Ultrasound of the abdomen
- CT scan or MRI
- Blood and urine tests
- Biopsy (in selected cases)
- Chest X-ray or CT (to check lung spread)
These tests help doctors plan the most effective treatment strategy.
