==Overview==
[[Staging]] is determined by combination of imaging studies, and [[pathological]] findings if the tumor is operable (adapted from www.cancer.gov). Treatment strategy is determined by the stage:
Staging of wilms tumor is done based upon the extent of tumor [[Anatomy|anatomically]] and not done on the basis of its [[genetics]], [[histology]] or [[molecular marker]]<nowiki/>s. Extensive disease and worse [[prognosis]] is denoted by a higher stage. The staging systems that are currently used are National Wilms Tumor Study (NWTS) system and International Society of Pediatric Oncology (SIOP) system. Both these systems divide wilms tumor into 5 stages.  


==Staging==
==Staging==
===Stage I (43% of patients) ===
* Staging of wilms tumor is done based upon:
For stage I Wilms' tumor, 1 or more of the following criteria must be met:  
** Extent of [[Tumor cell|tumor]] anatomically.  
* Tumor is limited to the kidney and is completely excised.
** It is not done on the basis of its [[genetics]], histology or molecular markers. 
* The surface of the renal [[capsule]] is intact.
* Extensive disease and worse prognosis is denoted by a higher stage. 
* The tumor is not ruptured or biopsied (open or needle) prior to removal.
* Patients suffering from a higher stage tumor get more aggressive treatment modalities.  
* No involvement of renal [[sinus]] vessels.

** '''Stage 1'''
*** Tumor is limited only to the [[kidney]].
*** When the tumor is resected the [[capsule]] is intact.
*** Resected tumor shows no evidence of involvement of renal sinus vessel.
** '''Stage 2'''
*** Tumor is extended beyond the [[kidney]], but can be resected completely.
*** Tumor margins go beyond the renal capsule.
*** It extends into the renal capsule, soft tissues and blood vessels beyond the renal [[Parenchymal|parenchyma]].
*** But all this is within the margins of the resected tumor.
** '''Stage 3'''
*** Complete tumor cannot be resected.
*** The remaining tumor is confined within the [[abdomen]].
*** Residual tumor remaining within abdomen includes :
**** Regional [[lymph nodes]]
**** [[Peritoneal]] surface
**** Incomplete resection of tumor
**** Tumor spillage
** '''Stage 4'''
*** In stage 4 either [[Metastasis|hematogenous metastasis]] are present or [[lymph nodes]] are affected beyond the abdominopelvic region.
*** [[Metastasis|Hematogenous metastasis]] include sites like:
**** [[Lung]]
**** [[Liver]]
**** [[Bone]]
**** [[Brain]]
** '''Stage 5'''
*** When Wilms tumor is diagnosed, bilateral renal involvement is seen.
*** Each kidney has to be staged separately.


===Stage II (23% of patients)===  
=== SIOP staging ===
For Stage II Wilms' tumor, 1 or more of the following criteria must be met:
* This system is followed in Europe.
* Tumor extends beyond the kidney but is completely excised.
* This system is based on the surgical evaluation done after the size of the tumor is reduced after [[chemotherapy]].
* No residual tumor apparent at or beyond the margins of excision.
* According to this system wilms tumor is divided into following stages.
* Any of the following conditions may also exist:
** '''Stage 1'''
** Tumor involvement of the blood vessels of the renal sinus and/or outside the renal [[parenchyma]].
*** Tumor is limited only to the kidney.
** The tumor has been biopsied prior to removal or there is local spillage of tumor during surgery, confined to the flank.
*** If the tumor extends beyond the kidney, a fibrous pseudocapsule surrounds it.
*** Tumor can be found in the pelvic system but should not involve ureter walls.
** '''Stage 2'''
*** Tumor is extended beyond the kidney, but can be resected completely.
*** After resection there is no evidence beyond the resection margins.
** '''Stage 3'''
*** After tumor is resected surgically, some residual [[tumor]] still remains.  
*** This remainder tumor is confined to the [[abdomen]].
*** No hematogenous metastasis is present.
** '''Stage 4'''
*** Hematogenous spread os positive.
*** This spread is to:
**** [[Lungs]]
**** [[Liver]]
**** [[Bone]]
**** [[Brain]]
*** Lymph nodes can be involved beyond the abdominopelvic region.
** '''Stage 5'''
*** Both kidneys are involved at the time of the diagnosis.  


Treatment: Nephrectomy + abdominal [[radiation]] + 24 weeks of chemotherapy

{{reflist|2}}
Outcome: 96% 4-year survival; 70% 4-year survival if anaplastic
 
===Stage III (23% of patients)===
For Stage III Wilms' tumor, 1 or more of the following criteria must be met:
* [[Unresectable]] primary tumor.
* Lymph node [[metastasis]].
* Positive surgical margins.
*Preoperative chemotherapy has been given.
 
* [[Tumor spillage]] involving peritoneal surfaces either before or during surgery, or [[transected]] tumor thrombus.
 
Treatment: Abdominal radiation + 24 weeks of chemotherapy + nephrectomy after tumor shrinkage
 
Outcome: 95% 4-year survival; 56% 4-year survival if anaplastic
 
===Stage IV (10% of patients) ===
Stage IV Wilms' tumor is defined as the presence of [[hematogenous]] [[metastases]] (lung, liver, bone, or brain), or lymph node metastases outside the abdominopelvic region.
 
Treatment: Nephrectomy + abdominal radiation + 24 weeks of chemotherapy + radiation of metastatic site as appropriate
 
Outcome: 90% 4-year survival; 17% 4-year survival if anaplastic
 
===Stage V (5% of patients) ===
Stage V Wilms’ tumor is defined as [[bilateral]] renal involvement at the time of initial diagnosis.
Note: For patients with bilateral involvement, an attempt should be made to stage each side according to the above criteria (stage I to III) on the basis of extent of disease prior to biopsy. The 4-year survival was 94% for those patients whose most advanced lesion was stage I or stage II; 76% for those whose most advanced lesion was stage III.
Treatment: Individualized therapy based on tumor burden


===Stage I-IV Anaplasia===
Children with stage I anaplastic tumors have an excellent prognosis (80-90% five-year survival). They can be managed with the same regimen given to stage I favorable [[histology]] patients.
Children with stage II through stage IV diffuse anaplasia, however, represent a higher-risk group. These tumors are more resistant to the chemotherapy traditionally used in children with Wilms’ tumor (favorable histology), and require more aggressive regimens.

Overview

Staging of wilms tumor is done based upon the extent of tumor anatomically and not done on the basis of its genetics, histology or molecular markers. Extensive disease and worse prognosis is denoted by a higher stage. The staging systems that are currently used are National Wilms Tumor Study (NWTS) system and International Society of Pediatric Oncology (SIOP) system. Both these systems divide wilms tumor into 5 stages.

Staging

  • Staging of wilms tumor is done based upon:
    • Extent of tumor anatomically.
    • It is not done on the basis of its genetics, histology or molecular markers.
  • Extensive disease and worse prognosis is denoted by a higher stage.
  • Patients suffering from a higher stage tumor get more aggressive treatment modalities.
  • The staging systems that are currently used are:[1]
    • National Wilms Tumor Study (NWTS) system.
    • International Society of Pediatric Oncology (SIOP) system.

NWTS system 

  • This system is used throughout United States and Canada.
  • It is based on the evaluations done during surgery before the administration of surgery.

      • Tumor is limited only to the kidney.
      • When the tumor is resected the capsule is intact.
      • Resected tumor shows no evidence of involvement of renal sinus vessel.

      • Tumor is extended beyond the kidney, but can be resected completely.
      • Tumor margins go beyond the renal capsule.
      • It extends into the renal capsule, soft tissues and blood vessels beyond the renal parenchyma.
      • But all this is within the margins of the resected tumor.
    • Stage 3
      • Complete tumor cannot be resected.
      • The remaining tumor is confined within the abdomen.
      • Residual tumor remaining within abdomen includes :
    • Stage 4
    • Stage 5
      • When Wilms tumor is diagnosed, bilateral renal involvement is seen.
      • Each kidney has to be staged separately.

SIOP staging

  • This system is followed in Europe.
  • This system is based on the surgical evaluation done after the size of the tumor is reduced after chemotherapy.
  • According to this system wilms tumor is divided into following stages.
    • Stage 1
      • Tumor is limited only to the kidney.
      • If the tumor extends beyond the kidney, a fibrous pseudocapsule surrounds it.
      • Tumor can be found in the pelvic system but should not involve ureter walls.

    • Stage 5
      • Both kidneys are involved at the time of the diagnosis.
