Abstract
A 7-year-old male with bilateral palpable testicular masses was found to have metastatic stage IV Wilms' tumors associated with both left renal and lung lesions. The patient was treated successfully with testicular-sparing bilateral partial orchiectomies, radical nephrectomy, chemotherapy, and radiation, with 8 years free of recurrence. This is the only reported case of bilateral testicular tumors from metastatic Wilms' tumor that were present at the initial presentation. A review of the literature of all previous reported cases of metachronous or related testicular metastatic Wilms' tumors is reported.Entities:
