Abstract
BACKGROUND In onco-nephrology, data on acute kidney injury (AKI) among children with haematological malignancies are scarce. METHODS A retrospective cohort study of all patients in Hong Kong diagnosed with haematological malignancies from 2019 to 2021 before 18 years of age, was conducted to investigate the epidemiology, risk factors and clinical outcomes of AKI during the first year of treatment. AKI was defined according to the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria. RESULTS We included 130 children with haematological malignancy at median age of 9.4 years (IQR, 3.9-14.1). Of these patients, 55.4% were acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), 26.9% were lymphoma and 17.7% were acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Thirty-five patients (26.9%) developed 41 AKI episodes during the first year of diagnosis, corresponding to 32 episodes per 100-patient-year. A total of 56.1% and 29.2% of the AKI episodes occurred during induction and consolidation chemotherapy respectively. Septic shock (n = 12, 29.2%) was the leading cause of AKI; 21 episodes (51.2%) were stage 3 AKI; 12 episodes (29.3%) were stage 2 AKI; and 6 patients required continuous kidney replacement therapies. Tumor lysis syndrome and impaired baseline kidney function were significantly associated with AKI on multivariate analysis (P = 0.01). History of AKI was associated with chemotherapy postponement (37.1% vs. 16.8%, P = 0.01), worse 12-month patient survival (77.1% vs. 94.7%, log rank P = 0.002) and lower disease remission rate at 12-month (68.6% vs. 88.4%, P = 0.007), compared to patients without AKI. CONCLUSION AKI is a common complication during treatment of haematological malignancies which is associated with worse treatment outcomes. A regular and dedicated surveillance program for at-risk patients should be studied in children with haematological malignancies for prevention and early detection of AKI. A higher resolution version of the Graphical abstract is available as Supplementary information.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Nephrotoxicity can occur as a side effect after treatment for kidney tumor in childhood. The use of radiotherapy (RT) has a potential additional effect. METHODS A systematic electronic literature search that combined childhood kidney cancer with different treatments and nephrotoxicity terms was performed in EMBASE. Studies were included based on the reporting of nephrotoxicity occurrence after treatment for kidney tumor during pediatric age, with 75% of participants being under the age of 25 years at the time of diagnosis, and having been treated with any type of kidney surgery, chemotherapy, and/or RT. RESULTS A pooled analysis did not show significant difference in estimated glomerular filtration rate between the group of patients who received RT compared with the group treated without RT (SMD -0.11 [95% CI -1.07-0.84] p = .733). CONCLUSION The current literature suggests that the use of RT does not have a significant impact on the decline of kidney function as independent factor.

Abstract
Every year, approximately 600 infants, children, and adolescents are diagnosed with renal cancer in the United States. In addition to Wilms tumor (WT), which accounts for about 80% of all pediatric renal cancers, clear cell sarcoma of the kidney, renal cell carcinoma, malignant rhabdoid tumor, as well as more rare cancers (other sarcomas, rare carcinomas, lymphoma) and benign tumors can originate within the kidney. WT itself can be divided into favorable histology (FHWT), with a 5-year overall survival (OS) exceeding 90%, and anaplastic histology, with 4-year OS of 73.7%. Outcomes of the other pediatric renal cancers include clear cell sarcoma (5-year OS: 90%), malignant rhabdoid tumor (5-year OS: 10% for stages 3 and 4), and renal cell carcinoma (4-year OS: 84.8%). Recent clinical trials have identified novel biological prognostic markers for FHWT, and a series of Children's Oncology Group (COG) trials have demonstrated improving outcomes with therapy modification, and opportunities for further care refinement.

Cumulative burden of late, major surgical intervention in survivors of childhood cancer: a report from the Childhood Cancer Survivor Study (CCSS) cohort. Lancet Oncol 2023; 24:691-700. [PMID: 37182536 PMCID: PMC10348667 DOI: 10.1016/s1470-2045(23)00154-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2023] [Revised: 03/29/2023] [Accepted: 03/30/2023] [Indexed: 05/16/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Multimodal cancer therapy places childhood cancer survivors at increased risk for chronic health conditions, subsequent malignancies, and premature mortality as they age. We aimed to estimate the cumulative burden of late (>5 years from cancer diagnosis), major surgical interventions among childhood cancer survivors, compared with their siblings, and to examine associations between specific childhood cancer treatments and the burden of late surgical interventions. METHODS We analysed data from the Childhood Cancer Survivor Study (CCSS), a retrospective cohort study with longitudinal prospective follow-up of 5-year survivors of childhood cancer (diagnosed before age 21 years) treated at 31 institutions in the USA, with a comparison group of nearest-age siblings of survivors selected by simple random sampling. The primary outcome was any self-reported late, major surgical intervention (defined as any anaesthesia-requiring operation) occurring 5 years or more after the primary cancer diagnosis. The cumulative burden was assessed with mean cumulative counts (MCC) of late, major surgical interventions. Piecewise exponential regression models with calculation of adjusted rate ratios (RRs) evaluated associations between treatment exposures and late, major surgical interventions. FINDINGS Between Jan 1, 1970, and Dec 31, 1999, 25 656 survivors were diagnosed (13 721 male, 11 935 female; median follow-up 21·8 years [IQR 16·5-28·4]; median age at diagnosis 6·1 years [3·0-12·4]); 5045 nearest-age siblings were also included as a comparison group. Survivors underwent 28 202 late, major surgical interventions and siblings underwent 4110 late, major surgical interventions. The 35-year MCC of a late, major surgical intervention was 206·7 per 100 survivors (95% CI 202·7-210·8) and 128·9 per 100 siblings (123·0-134·7). The likelihood of a late, major surgical intervention was higher in survivors versus siblings (adjusted RR 1·8, 95% CI 1·7-1·9) and in female versus male survivors (1·4; 1·4-1·5). Survivors diagnosed in the 1990s (adjusted RR 1·4, 95% CI 1·3-1·5) had an increased likelihood of late surgery compared with those diagnosed in the 1970s. Survivors received late interventions more frequently than siblings in most anatomical regions or organ systems, including CNS (adjusted RR 16·9, 95% CI 9·4-30·4), endocrine (6·7, 5·2-8·7), cardiovascular (6·6, 5·2-8·3), respiratory (5·3, 3·4-8·2), spine (2·4, 1·8-3·2), breast (2·1, 1·7-2·6), renal or urinary (2·0, 1·5-2·6), musculoskeletal (1·5, 1·4-1·7), gastrointestinal (1·4, 1·3-1·6), and head and neck (1·2, 1·1-1·4) interventions. Survivors of Hodgkin lymphoma (35-year MCC 333·3 [95% CI 320·1-346·6] per 100 survivors), Ewing sarcoma (322·9 [294·5-351·3] per 100 survivors), and osteosarcoma (269·6 [250·1-289·2] per 100 survivors) had the highest cumulative burdens of late, major surgical interventions. Locoregional surgery or radiotherapy cancer treatment were associated with undergoing late surgical intervention in the same body region or organ system. INTERPRETATION Childhood cancer survivors have a significant burden of late, major surgical interventions, a late effect that has previously been poorly quantified. Survivors would benefit from regular health-care evaluations aiming to anticipate impending surgical issues and to intervene early in the disease course when feasible.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate long-term morbidity and mortality among unilateral, nonsyndromic Wilms tumor (WT) survivors according to conventional treatment regimens. METHODS Cumulative incidence of late mortality (≥ 5 years from diagnosis) and chronic health conditions (CHCs) were evaluated in WT survivors from the Childhood Cancer Survivor Study. Outcomes were evaluated by treatment, including nephrectomy combined with vincristine and actinomycin D (VA), VA + doxorubicin + abdominal radiotherapy (VAD + ART), VAD + ART + whole lung radiotherapy, or receipt of ≥ 4 chemotherapy agents. RESULTS Among 2,008 unilateral WT survivors, 142 deaths occurred (standardized mortality ratio, 2.9, 95% CI, 2.5 to 3.5; 35-year cumulative incidence of death, 7.8%, 95% CI, 6.3 to 9.2). The 35-year cumulative incidence of any grade 3-5 CHC was 34.1% (95% CI, 30.7 to 37.5; rate ratio [RR] compared with siblings 3.0, 95% CI, 2.6 to 3.5). Survivors treated with VA alone had comparable risk for all-cause late mortality relative to the general population (standardized mortality ratio, 1.0; 95% CI, 0.5 to 1.7) and modestly increased risk for grade 3-5 CHCs compared with siblings (RR, 1.5; 95% CI, 1.1 to 2.0), but remained at increased risk for intestinal obstruction (RR, 9.4; 95% CI, 3.9 to 22.2) and kidney failure (RR, 11.9; 95% CI, 4.2 to 33.6). Magnitudes of risk for grade 3-5 CHCs, including intestinal obstruction, kidney failure, premature ovarian insufficiency, and heart failure, increased by treatment group intensity. CONCLUSION With approximately 40% of patients with newly diagnosed WT currently treated with VA alone, the burden of late mortality/morbidity in future decades is projected to be lower than that for survivors from earlier eras. Nevertheless, the risk of late effects such as intestinal obstruction and kidney failure was elevated across all treatment groups, and there was a dose-dependent increase in risk for all grade 3-5 CHCs by treatment group intensity.

Abstract
PURPOSE Kidney failure is a rare but serious late effect following treatment for childhood cancer. We developed a model using demographic and treatment characteristics to predict individual risk of kidney failure among 5-year survivors of childhood cancer. METHODS Five-year survivors from the Childhood Cancer Survivor Study (CCSS) without history of kidney failure (n = 25,483) were assessed for subsequent kidney failure (ie, dialysis, kidney transplantation, or kidney-related death) by age 40 years. Outcomes were identified by self-report and linkage with the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network and the National Death Index. A sibling cohort (n = 5,045) served as a comparator. Piecewise exponential models accounting for race/ethnicity, age at diagnosis, nephrectomy, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, congenital genitourinary anomalies, and early-onset hypertension estimated the relationships between potential predictors and kidney failure, using area under the curve (AUC) and concordance (C) statistic to evaluate predictive power. Regression coefficient estimates were converted to integer risk scores. The St Jude Lifetime Cohort Study and the National Wilms Tumor Study served as validation cohorts. RESULTS Among CCSS survivors, 204 developed late kidney failure. Prediction models achieved an AUC of 0.65-0.67 and a C-statistic of 0.68-0.69 for kidney failure by age 40 years. Validation cohort AUC and C-statistics were 0.88/0.88 for the St Jude Lifetime Cohort Study (n = 8) and 0.67/0.64 for the National Wilms Tumor Study (n = 91). Risk scores were collapsed to form statistically distinct low- (n = 17,762), moderate- (n = 3,784), and high-risk (n = 716) groups, corresponding to cumulative incidences in CCSS of kidney failure by age 40 years of 0.6% (95% CI, 0.4 to 0.7), 2.1% (95% CI, 1.5 to 2.9), and 7.5% (95% CI, 4.3 to 11.6), respectively, compared with 0.2% (95% CI, 0.1 to 0.5) among siblings. CONCLUSION Prediction models accurately identify childhood cancer survivors at low, moderate, and high risk for late kidney failure and may inform screening and interventional strategies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to describe the burden of adverse kidney and hypertension outcomes in patients evaluated by pediatric nephrology in a multidisciplinary survivorship clinic. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective chart review of all patients followed up by nephrology in our multidisciplinary survivorship clinic from August 2013 to June 2021. Data included clinic blood pressure, longitudinal ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM), echocardiography, serum creatinine, and first-morning urine protein/creatinine ratios. For patients with multiple ABPMs, results of initial and most recent ABPMs were compared. RESULTS Of 422 patients followed in the multidisciplinary cancer survivorship clinic, 130 were seen by nephrology. The median time after therapy completion to first nephrology visit was 8 years. The most common diagnoses were leukemia/myelodysplastic syndrome (27%), neuroblastoma (24%), and Wilms tumor (15%). At the last follow-up, 68% had impaired kidney function, 38% had a clinical diagnosis of hypertension, and 12% had proteinuria. There were 91 ABPMs performed in 55 (42%) patients. Patients with multiple ABPMs (n = 21) had statistically significant reductions in overall median blood pressure loads: systolic initial load 37% vs most recent 10% (P = .005) and diastolic load 36% vs 14% (P = .017). Patients with impaired kidney function were more likely to have received ifosfamide. Patients with hypertension were more likely to have received total body irradiation or allogeneic stem cell transplant. CONCLUSIONS History of leukemia/myelodysplastic syndrome, neuroblastoma, and Wilms tumor was frequent among survivors seen by nephrology. There was significant improvement in cardiovascular measures with increased recognition of hypertension and subsequent treatment.

Abstract
The survival rate among children with cancer was significantly improved in recent years. About 40% of these patients, however, suffer from late complications of anticancer treatment. Risk factors of late kidney impairment include beginning of specific treatment before the age of 5 years; pre-existing kidney pathology; high cumulative dose of chemotherapy agents and radiation; surgery, including neurotomy. It is currently impossible to predict individual long-term effects of therapy. For this reason, the International Cancer Group suggests that all children who have undergone specific antitumor therapy be included in the risk group for the development of longterm complications, and to follow up asymptomatic patients surviving cancer without kidney function and structure impairment with at least yearly monitoring of blood pressure, blood count, urinalysis, serum creatinine, urea, K, Na, Ca, P, Mg, alkaline phosphatase. We described the spectrum of kidney diseases including ureterohydronephrosis, renovascular hypertension, Fanconi syndrome, and postradiation nephrosclerosis manifested from 8 months to 8 years after specific antitumor treatment.

Pediatric Small Renal Masses: Can Tumor Size Predict Histology and the Potential for Nephron-sparing Surgery? J Urol 2023; 209:582-590. [PMID: 36445021 PMCID: PMC9918661 DOI: 10.1097/ju.0000000000003092] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2022] [Accepted: 11/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE The majority of children with unilateral renal masses suspicious for malignancy undergo radical nephrectomy, while nephron-sparing surgery is reserved for select cases. We investigated the impact of tumor size on the probability of histology. We hypothesized that pediatric small renal masses are more likely benign or non-Wilms tumor, thus potentially appropriate for nephron-sparing surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS The SEER (Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results) database was analyzed for patients aged 0-18 years diagnosed with a unilateral renal mass from 2000-2016. Statistical analysis was performed to help determine a tumor size cut point to predict Wilms tumor and assess the predictive value of tumor size on Wilms tumor histology. Additionally, a retrospective review was performed of patients 0-18 years old who underwent surgery for a unilateral renal mass at a single institution from 2005-2019. Statistical analysis was performed to assess the predictive value of tumor size on final histology. RESULTS From the SEER analysis, 2,016 patients were included. A total of 1,672 tumors (82.9%) were Wilms tumor. Analysis revealed 4 cm to be a suitable cut point to distinguish non-Wilms tumor. Tumors ≥4 cm were more likely Wilms tumor (OR 2.67, P ≤ .001), but this was driven by the statistical significance in children 5-9 years old. From the institutional analysis, 134 patients were included. Ninety-seven tumors (72.3%) were Wilms tumor. Tumors ≥4 cm had higher odds of being Wilms tumor (OR 30.85, P = .001), malignant (OR 6.75, P = .005), and having radical nephrectomy-appropriate histology (OR 46.79, P < .001). CONCLUSIONS The probability that a pediatric unilateral renal mass is Wilms tumor increases with tumor size. Four centimeters is a logical cut point to start the conversation around defining pediatric small renal masses and may help predict nephron-sparing surgery-appropriate histology.

The results of concentration of care: Surgical outcomes of neuroblastoma in the Netherlands. EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF SURGICAL ONCOLOGY 2023; 49:505-511. [PMID: 36307270 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejso.2022.10.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2022] [Revised: 09/08/2022] [Accepted: 10/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION In the Netherlands pediatric oncological care for solid tumours is concentrated in one centre since November 2014. One of the most frequently diagnosed solid non-brain tumours in children is the neuroblastoma. Results of surgical treatment of neuroblastoma since the start of this centralization are presented and compared to a historic cohort. METHODS The new national cohort of neuroblastoma (n = 111) consists of all consecutive patients treated between January 1st, 2015 and April 1st, 2021. The historic neuroblastoma cohort consists of all operated neuroblastoma patients in the Netherlands between 1998 and 2014 (n = 244). Intra-operative complications and surgical outcome were registered. Post-operative complications were divided in short (<30 days after surgery) and long term (>30 days). The severity of complications was graded using the Clavien Dindo Classification (CDC) system. RESULTS Intraoperative outcomes showed significant differences in favour of the new cohort with less blood loss (p < 0.001), fewer vascular complications (p < 0.001) and shorter duration of surgery (p < 0.001). Short term complications were comparable in numbers, but significantly more patients had CDC grade 3/4/5 complications in the historic cohort (p = 0.005). Long term complications did not differ. Estimated overall survival showed a better survival in the new cohort (log rank 0.022). CONCLUSION Centralization of care for neuroblastoma patients has led to a significant improvement of both intraoperative outcomes and short term complications.

Abstract
This investigation aimed to evaluate glomerular dysfunction among childhood cancer survivors in comparison with matched controls from the general population. In the Dutch Childhood Cancer Survivor Study (DCCSS)-LATER 2 kidney analysis, a nationwide cross-sectional cohort study, 1024 survivors five or more years after diagnosis, aged 18 or more years at study, treated between 1963-2001 with nephrectomy, abdominal radiotherapy, total body irradiation, cisplatin, carboplatin, ifosfamide, high-dose cyclophosphamide or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation participated. In addition, 500 age- and sex-matched controls from Lifelines, a prospective population-based cohort study in the Netherlands, participated. At a median age of 32.0 years (interquartile range 26.6-37.4), the glomerular filtration rate was under 60 ml/min/1.73m2 in 3.7% of survivors and in none of the controls. Ten survivors had kidney failure. Chronic kidney disease according to age-thresholds (glomerular filtration rate respectively under 75 for age under 40, under 60 for ages 40-65, and under 40 for age over 65) was 6.6% in survivors vs. 0.2% in controls. Albuminuria (albumin-to-creatinine ratio over3 mg/mmol) was found in 16.2% of survivors and 1.2% of controls. Risk factors for chronic kidney disease, based on multivariable analyses, were nephrectomy (odds ratio 3.7 (95% Confidence interval 2.1-6.4)), abdominal radiotherapy (1.8 (1.1-2.9)), ifosfamide (2.9 (1.9-4.4)) and cisplatin over 500 mg/m2 (7.2 (3.4-15.2)). For albuminuria, risk factors were total body irradiation (2.3 (1.2-4.4)), abdominal radiotherapy over 30 Gy (2.6 (1.4- 5.0)) and ifosfamide (1.6 (1.0-2.4)). Hypertension and follow-up 30 or more years increased the risk for glomerular dysfunction. Thus, lifetime monitoring of glomerular function in survivors exposed to these identified high risk factors is warranted.

Abstract
Simple Summary Anti-cancer treatments induced an increase in the childhood cancer survival rate. However, they are responsible for several long-term side effects in childhood cancer survivors, including osteoporosis. Cancer itself, a sedentary lifestyle, and an unhealthy diet might adversely affect bone health. Early identification and adequate management of bone fragility in childhood cancer survivors could be useful to prevent osteoporosis onset and consequently fragility fractures. Abstract The improvement of chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgical interventions, together with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, increased childhood cancer survival rate in the last decades, reaching 80% in Europe. Nevertheless, anti-cancer treatments are mainly responsible for the onset of long-term side effects in childhood cancer survivors (CCS), including alterations of the endocrine system function and activity. In particular, the most frequent dysfunction in CCS is a metabolic bone disorder characterized by low bone mineral density (BMD) with increased skeletal fragility. BMD loss is also a consequence of a sedentary lifestyle, malnutrition, and cancer itself could affect BMD, thus inducing osteopenia and osteoporosis. In this paper, we provide an overview of possible causes of bone impairment in CCS in order to propose management strategies for early identification and treatment of skeletal fragility in this population.

Prospective Evaluation of Kidney Function in Long-Term Survivors of Pediatric CNS Tumors. Curr Oncol 2022; 29:5306-5315.

Abstract
Purpose: Numerous acute effects of chemotherapeutics on kidney function are well described. However, data on the long-term effects of chemotherapy in the growing population of childhood central nervous system (CNS) tumor survivors is limited. We aimed to evaluate the kidney function of a cohort of long-term CNS tumor survivors treated with different standard chemotherapeutic regimens. Methods: Patients treated for a CNS tumor were prospectively evaluated up to 12 years after completion of their therapy. Examination of kidney function was performed during routine follow-up visits. Blood pressure and blood and urine parameters were analyzed for kidney function evaluation. Glomerular function was assessed by calculating the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), tubular functions were analyzed by measuring serum electrolytes, bicarbonate and phosphate reabsorption, and proteinuria was assessed by calculating the protein/creatinine ratio and phosphate reabsorption. Results: None of the 65 patients evaluated suffered from clinically relevant kidney impairment (eGFR < 90 mL/min/L, 73 m2). There was no association between chemotherapy dose and eGFR. Only two patients showed mild signs of tubulopathy and 11 patients were diagnosed with elevated blood pressure. Conclusion: With adequate supportive measures, such as sufficient hydration according to chemotherapy protocol guidelines, as well as avoidance or close monitoring of additional nephrotoxic medication, impaired kidney function is rare in CNS tumor survivors treated with standard chemotherapy. Nonetheless, long-term follow-up is essential for early detection of mild impairment of kidney function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Survival after Wilms tumor has significantly increased and focus on late effects has become increasingly important. However, knowledge about long-term renal function in survivors of Wilms tumor is missing. Our aim was to investigate evidence of kidney disease in 20- or more-year survivors of Wilms tumor in a clinical setting, with siblings as comparisons. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, we established a cohort of Danish 20-plus-year survivors of Wilms tumor and siblings as controls. Participants answered a comprehensive health questionnaire supplemented by measurements of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio, and blood pressure and were categorized according to the chronic kidney disease classification. Multiple linear regression analysis, taking family membership into account, was used to describe the differences in eGFR. Logistic regression analysis was performed to describe risk factors for the development of kidney disease. RESULTS We included 99 survivors of Wilms tumor and 38 sibling controls with a median of 37 years of follow-up. The eGFR of Wilms tumor survivors was 13 ml/min/1.73 m2 (95% CI -20; -5) lower when compared to sibling control. Evidence of kidney disease, with risk factors as hypertension and diabetes, was found in 19% of the Wilms tumor survivors and 2% developed end-stage renal disease. Ninety-two percent of the Wilms tumor survivors had an eGFR >60 ml/min/1.732 . CONCLUSION Long-term Wilms tumor survivors have on average a significantly decreased renal function along with the increased prevalence of kidney disease and end-stage renal disease when compared to sibling controls. Still, most survivors had kidney function within the normal range.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the prevalence of and risk factors for hypertension in childhood cancer survivors (CCSs) who were treated with potentially nephrotoxic therapies. METHODS In the Dutch Childhood Cancer Survivor Study LATER cohort part 2 renal study, 1024 CCS ≥5 years after diagnosis, aged ≥18 years at study participation, treated between 1963 and 2001 with nephrectomy, abdominal radiotherapy, total body irradiation (TBI), cisplatin, carboplatin, ifosfamide, high-dose cyclophosphamide (≥1 g/m2 per single dose or ≥10 g/m2 total) or haematopoietic stem cell transplantation participated and 500 controls from Lifelines. Hypertension was defined as blood pressure (BP) (mmHg) systolic ≥140 and/or diastolic ≥90 or receiving medication for diagnosed hypertension. At the study visit, the CKD-EPI 2012 equation including creatinine and cystatin C was used to estimate the glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Multivariable regression analyses were used. For ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM), hypertension was defined as BP daytime: systolic ≥135 and/or diastolic ≥85, night time: systolic ≥120 and/or diastolic ≥70, 24-h: systolic ≥130 and/or diastolic ≥80. Outcomes were masked hypertension (MH), white coat hypertension and abnormal nocturnal dipping (aND). RESULTS Median age at cancer diagnosis was 4.7 years (interquartile range, IQR 2.4-9.2), at study 32.5 years (IQR 27.7-38.0) and follow-up 25.5 years (IQR 21.4-30.3). The prevalence of hypertension was comparable in CCS (16.3%) and controls (18.2%). In 12% of CCS and 17.8% of controls, hypertension was undiagnosed. A decreased GFR (<60 ml/min/1.73 m2) was associated with hypertension in CCS (OR 3.4, 95% CI 1.4-8.5). Risk factors were abdominal radiotherapy ≥20 Gy and TBI. The ABPM-pilot study (n = 77) showed 7.8% MH, 2.6% white coat hypertension and 20.8% aND. CONCLUSION The prevalence of hypertension was comparable among CCS who were treated with potentially nephrotoxic therapies compared to controls, some of which were undiagnosed. Risk factors were abdominal radiotherapy ≥20 Gy and TBI. Hypertension and decreased GFR were associated with CCS. ABPM identified MH and a ND.

Abstract
Survival of unilateral Wilms tumors (WTs) is exceeding 90%, whereas bilateral WTs have an inferior outcome. We evaluated all Dutch patients with bilateral kidney tumors, treated in the first five years of national centralization and reviewed relevant literature. We identified 24 patients in our center (2015–2020), 23 patients had WT/nephroblastomatosis and one renal cell carcinoma. Patients were treated according to SIOP-RTSG protocols. Chemotherapy response was observed in 26/34 WTs. Nephroblastomatosis lesions were stable (n = 7) or showed response (n = 18). Nephron-sparing surgery was performed in 11/22 patients undergoing surgery (n = 2 kidneys positive margins). Local stage in 20 patients with ≥1 WT revealed stage I (n = 7), II (n = 4) and III (n = 9). Histology was intermediate risk in 15 patients and high risk in 5. Three patients developed a WT in a treated nephroblastomatosis lesion. Two of 24 patients died following toxicity and renal failure, i.e., respectively dialysis-related invasive fungal infection and septic shock. Genetic predisposition was confirmed in 18/24 patients. Our literature review revealed that knowledge is scarce on bilateral renal tumor patients with metastases and that radiotherapy seems important for local stage III patients. Bilateral renal tumors are a therapeutic challenge. We describe management and outcome in a national expert center and summarized available literature, serving as baseline for further improvement of care.
