📋Overview
Wilms' tumor is a malignant growth originating from immature kidney cells and represents one of the most common forms of pediatric renal cancer. This condition is distinct from adult kidney cancers due to its specific clinical and genetic characteristics.
The tumor typically develops in a single kidney, though it may occasionally involve both kidneys. It is characterized by the development of abnormal tissue that interferes with normal renal function.
