title: Adult Wilms' tumor: case report, management, prognosis.
abstract: Wilms' tumor being a rare disease in adults, even large centers have had experience with isolated cases only. In our clinic, we have treated two cases of histologically confirmed Wilms' tumor in the last 3 years. On the basis of two case reports, we describe the staging, treatment and prognosis of this highly malignant tumor. To a large extent, diagnostics and treatment follow the recommendations for Wilms' tumor in children.
