Abstract

A 2-year-old girl was referred for the management of the progression of her localized Wilms tumor. She had undergone laparoscopic nephron-sparing surgery for her right Wilms tumor 3 months earlier. Postoperative chemotherapy was commenced 6 weeks later. Subsequent computer tomographic evaluation 12 weeks postsurgery showed local recurrence and peritoneal tumors. These findings were confirmed at laparotomy. We report the first case of peritoneal tumor dissemination after laparoscopic nephron-sparing surgery for localized Wilms tumor.
