Lymph node imaging of pediatric renal and suprarenal malignancies

Abstract: Pediatric renal and suprarenal cancers are relatively rare malignancies, but are not without significant consequence to both the patient and caretakers. These tumors are often found incidentally and present as large abdominal masses. Standard of care management involves surgical excision of the mass, but contemporary treatment guidelines advocate for use of neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy for advanced stage disease, such as those cases with lymph node involvement (LNI). However, LNI detection is based pri… Show more

“…Therefore, either feature is suggestive of a higher probability of a non‐WT (28% for calcifications and 17% for bulky adenopathy 5 ). However, the size of lymph nodes alone is not predictive of the degree of tumour spread (i.e., enlarged nodes may be reactive and conversely small ones contain tumour deposits) 23 and so all cases of bulky lymphadenopathy should lead to a careful discussion in a TBM regarding the indication for CNB.…”
