“…The present study found that abdominal pain was the most common clinical presentation (67.2 %), followed by abdominal mass (20.7%). This is in discordance with the Iraqi study by Almoamin et al, which also revealed that abdominal mass was the most common presentation (44.3%) [23]. Bozlu et al found that the most common symptom was a lump or mass in the area of the kidneys (45.8%), abdominal pain, and hematuria (14.6%) [19].…”

“…This study has found that Wilm's tumor is the most common pediatric renal tumor, followed by neuroblastoma. In Basrah, Almoamen et al found that Wilms tumor constituted 85%, followed by clear cell sarcoma (8%) [23]. Ooms Concerning benign tumors, multicystic renal dysplasia was the most common.…”

“…However, an Iraqi study by Phelps et al revealed that among 20 patients with Wilm's tumor, 14/20 (70%) had advanced stages (III and IV) [29]. In Basrah, Almoamin et al also reported that 49.3% were at advanced stages (III, IV, V) and only 65.6% had favorable histology [23]. The higher early-stage rate in our study can be attributed to its setting, as it was conducted in a tertiary center where early diagnosis is more feasible.…”

Background: According to the Iraqi Cancer Registry, renal carcinoma is the 13th most common carcinoma, with 798 registered cases in 2020 and 418 deaths. Methods: This is a cross sectional retrospective study that includes the analysis of 116 randomly selected sample of pediatric patients (74 nephrectomies and 42 biopsies) sent to the Teaching Laboratories of AL-Emamain AL-Kadhmain city (AS), Baghdad medical city, and private laboratories from January 2019 to January 2023. Results: Histopathological diagnosis revealed a ratio from malignant to benign of 7.4:1. Wilm’s tumor was the most common malignant tumor (65.5%), while multicystic renal dysplasia was the most common benign tumor (7.8%). Abdominal pain was the most common clinical feature (67.2%), followed by abdominal mass (20.7%). Regarding malignant cases, Pathological stage I was the most common (39.0%). As for the histopathological subtype, triphasic type was the most common (57.1%), followed by the biphasic type (10.5%). Conclusions, Malignant tumors make up the vast majority of renal tumors. Wilm tumor is the predominant malignant tumor. Fortunately, most cases of Wilm tumors exhibited an early stage and favorable histology. Neuroblastoma was the second most common malignant tumor. The abdominal lump is the most common presentation of pediatric renal tumor.
