Pediatric genitourinary tumors.
Each year advances are made in the evaluation and management of genitourinary tumors in children. There is increased understanding of molecular and genetic processes in tumorigenesis. In addition, knowledge concerning the current treatment modalities is increasing, thus allowing us to tailor treatments in order to decrease long-term complications. In this article, we review this past year's literature regarding pediatric genitourinary tumors with emphasis on Wilms tumor, rhabdomyosarcoma, and testicular tumors.
