Five Stages of Wilms Tumor.
Staging is a measure of how far the tumor has spread. It helps our doctors determine the best treatment for your child.
- Stage 1: The cancer is only in one kidney and can be completely removed through surgery. Sometimes, children with stage I Wilms’ tumor do not need any treatment beyond surgery.
- Stage 2: The cancer has spread to areas around the kidney and can be completely removed through surgery.
- Stage 3: The cancer has spread to areas near the kidney, such as the lymph nodes, and cannot be completely removed through surgery.
- Stage 4: The cancer has spread to organs such as the lungs, liver, bone, or brain.
- Stage 5: Tumors are found in both kidneys. Each kidney is staged separately.
