Wilms' tumor is the most common renal malignancy of childhood. Survival rates for favorable histology of Wilms' tumor currently approach 90%. Recent advances in the molecular genetics of Wilms' tumor have led to insights into the genetic factors involved in the development of Wilms' tumor, normal renal development, and the mechanisms of tumorigenesis.
