Extractions: Although Wilms tumor occurs sporadically in children, 8% of Wilms tumors will develop in individuals who have a recognizable pattern of malformation. High-risk Wilms tumor phenotypes can generally be grouped as "overgrowth" syndromes or "non-overgrowth" syndromes. 1. Overgrowth Syndrome The most common disorders in the overgrowth category are Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome and isolated hemihypertrophy. A. Beckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome Beckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome (BWS) is characterized by pre and postnatal overgrowth, omphalocele, macro-glossia, nephromegaly and ear lobe creases. Somatic hemihypertrophy may or may not be present. While 80% of BWS cases are sporadic, 20% show a complex familial inheritance pattern explained by alteration of genes at 11P15. For BWS in general, over-expression of the insulin-like growth factor II gene located at 11P15 is believed to cause the characteristic overgrowth and perhaps confer increased risk of Wilms tumor. The overall risk of neoplasia with BWS may approach about 8%, and specifically the Wilms tumor risk appears to be in the range of 3-5%. B. Isolated Hemihypertrophy

Extractions: Recurrent Wilms' Tumor This summary on Wilms' tumor is an overview of prognosis, diagnosis, classification, and treatment. The National Cancer Institute created the PDQ database to increase the availability of new treatment information and its use in treating patients. Information and references from the most recently published literature are included after review by pediatric oncology specialists. Cancer in children and adolescents is rare. Children and adolescents with cancer should be referred to medical centers that have a multidisciplinary team of cancer specialists with experience treating the cancers that occur during childhood and adolescence. This multidisciplinary team approach incorporates the skills of the primary care physician, pediatric surgical subspecialists, radiation oncologists, pediatric medical oncologists/hematologists, rehabilitation specialists, pediatric nurse specialists, social workers, and others in order to ensure that children receive treatment, supportive care, and rehabilitation that will achieve optimal survival and quality of life. Guidelines for pediatric cancer centers and their role in the treatment of pediatric patients with cancer have been outlined by the American Academy of Pediatrics. ] At these pediatric cancer centers, there are clinical trials available for most of the types of cancer that occur in children and adolescents, and the opportunity to participate in these trials is offered to most patients/families. Clinical trials for children and adolescents with cancer are generally designed to compare potentially better therapy with therapy that is currently accepted as standard. The majority of the progress made in identifying curative therapies for childhood cancers have been achieved through clinical trials. Information about ongoing clinical trials is available from the NCI (http://cancernet.nci.nih.gov/trialsrch.shtml).

Extractions: Received: 17 July 1994 Accepted: 1 April 1995 Abstract Hemimegalencephaly (HME) is a rare neuronal migration anomaly, rarely associated with hemihypertrophy or some other somatic malformation; it can coexist with intracranial arteriovenous shunts which cause cardiac failure. We report a rare case associated with hemihypertrophy of the face, trunk and limbs and malformation of the feet. The neuroradiological findings are underlined and the differential diagnoses discussed. Key words Article not available online Online publication: December 2, 1997

Extractions: Your son's leg pain may be due to his growth spurts. Children with BWS do most of their growing it seems when they are younger. Be sure his doctor is watching out for asymmetrical leg growth (one leg growing faster then the other one). Warm towels or soaking in a warm bath may help. If it still hurts then talk to his doctor about ibuprofen. Tip #3 I have noticed people talking about how they buy their shoes. My son is not there yet, but I know that I will be buying different sizes so I did some research. Someone gave me a list of websites for parents of children with special needs and I found the site listed below. They have a seperate listing for footwear and if you click on it, it will take you to a list of stores that sell special footwear including shoes that are different sizes.
