Combined surgical and interventional management of a 3-year-old patient with bilateral nephroblastoma

We present the case of a 3-year-old female patient diagnosed with stage V bilateral nephroblastoma with predominant blastemal component. The treatment protocol included preoperative chemotherapy, left partial nephrectomy, and postoperative chemotherapy. After full recovery, partial right nephrectomy was performed, combined with left radical nephrectomy due to the suspicion of a local subcapsular recurrence. A small remaining tumoral lesion was treated by percutaneous microwave ablation with favorable postoperative recovery. Nephroblastoma raises a challenging diagnostic and treatment protocol, requiring a multimodal and multidisciplinary approach of the pediatric patient.
