title: A surgical approach on an emergency basis for removal of Wilms' tumor with intracardiac neoplastic extension.
abstract: Extension of Wilms' tumor through inferior vena cava into the heart two years after the completion of therapy, is a very rare clinical aspect. We successfully operated on a 7 year old girl who had a huge right atrial mass which filled the right ventricle and right ventricular out flow tract, on an emergency basis using cardiopulmonary bypass.
