[Major and minor congenital anomalies in children with Wilms' tumor].
Wilms's tumour is a paediatric tumour of hereditary origin in 40% of cases. In children with Wilms's tumour associated congenital anomalies are frequent, particularly congenital anomalies of the kidney and urogenital tract. Over the period from 1972 to 1987 the authors carried out a prospective study and systematically investigated congenital major and minor anomalies in 24 children with Wilms's tumour. They revealed the presence of aniridia, bilateral cataract and cryptorchidism in 1/24 children, mental retardation, small stigated congenital major and minor anomalies in 40 chidism in 1/40 children, mental retardation, small stature and a cystic kidney in 1/40, mental retardation in 3/40. A detailed investigation of minor anomalies confirmed the presence of 2 to 3 anomalies in all observed children. Cytogenetic investigation was performed in all children. Only in a child with aniridia Wilms's tumour a cytogenetic anomaly, 11p deletion, was found.
