Pediatric genitourinary tumors.
Each year significant advances are made in the clinical evaluation and treatment of genitourinary tumors in children as well as in the understanding of the molecular biology of tumorigenesis and genetics. In addition, the long-term outcome and complications of current treatments are now becoming available for review. The purpose of this article is to review recent literature on pediatric genitourinary Wilms' tumor, rhabdomyosarcoma, and testicular carcinoma in situ.
