Treatment for stage I FH Wilms' tumor is generally successful using vincristine monotherapy after immediate nephrectomy, and therefore, the risks of dactinomycin hepatopathy can be avoided. However, age at least 4 years is a significant adverse prognostic factor. This treatment schedule should be considered in any trial of treatment reduction in very young children with stage I FH Wilms' tumor, regardless of tumor size, and we suggest that the upper age limit for the reduced therapy be set at 4 years.
