ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
The International Society of Paediatric Oncology (SIOP) protocols recommend preoperative chemotherapy appropriate for Wilms tumors (WTs) in children with renal tumors aged ≥6 months, reserving biopsy for "atypical" cases. The Children's Cancer and Leukaemia Group (CCLG) joined the SIOP-WT-2001 study but continued the national practice of biopsy at presentation.METHOD:
Retrospective study of concordance between locally reported renal tumor biopsies and central pathology review nephrectomy diagnoses of children enrolled by CCLG centers in the SIOP-WT-2001 study.RESULTS:
Biopsy reports were available for 552/787 children with unilateral tumors. 36 of 552 (6.5%) were nondiagnostic 2 normal tissue, 12 necrotic, 9 insufficient sample, and 13 indeterminate results (disproportionately non-WTs). The sensitivity and specificity of biopsy to identify tumors that did not require SIOP empirical preoperative chemotherapy were 86.0% and 99.6%, respectively. 13 of 548 (2.4%) biopsy results were discordant with nephrectomy; non-WTs other than renal cell carcinoma and clear cell sarcoma of the kidney (CCSK) were poorly recognized. In children aged 6-119 months, 480 of 518 (91.6%) had WT or nephroblastomatosis. 5 of 518 (1%) had benign tumors, and only one diagnosed on biopsy. Biopsy results correctly changed clinical management in 25 of 518 (4.8%), including identifying 19 of 20 CCSKs, but would have led to overtreatment in 5 of 518 (1%) or undertreatment in 4 of 518 (0.8%). In children aged ≥10 years, biopsy correctly changed management in 5 of 19 (26%) cases with no discordance.CONCLUSION:
Biopsy is less effective at identifying non-WTs than WTs and rarely changes management in younger children. Biopsy should be reserved in SIOP protocols for children ≥10 years and in younger children with clinical or radiological features inconsistent with WT.Palavras-chave
