저자들은 복부 팽만을 주소로 내원한 24세 여자 환자에서 술전 난소기원의 복강내 종괴로 진단되었다가, 수술 후 후복막에서 기원한 신외 Wilms 종양으로 확인되어 항암화학요법과 방사선치료를 병용한 1례를 방사선학적, 조직학적 소견과 함께 보고하는 바이다.
Wilms' tumor is the most common malignant abdominal tumor in the adolescent and pediatric period, whereas adult Wilms' tumor is uncommon. Wilms' tumor often originates in the kidney. Extrarenal Wilms' tumor is rare and has been considered "unstageable". Therefore, treatment and long-term survival have not been uniformly reported. We report a 24 year-old female who developed extrarenal Wilms' tumor, in the retroperitoneal space. She was misdiagnosed for ovarian neoplasm and underwent debulking operation, by which Wilms' tumor was confirmed. Palliative chemotherapy and radiotherapy were performed.(Korean J Med 63:577-580, 2002)
