Abstract

Advances in our knowledge of pediatric genitourinary tumors are being made at both the basic science and clinical levels. The molecular mechanisms underlying these pediatric malignancies are being uncovered and will aid in uncovering novel treatments. Because of the high success rate in treating these tumors, treatment options are being modified to decrease both short- and long-term morbidity, while maintaining the improved survival.

摘要

我们对小儿泌尿生殖系统肿瘤的认识在基础科学和临床层面都取得了进展。这些小儿恶性肿瘤的分子机制正在被揭示，这将有助于发现新的治疗方法。由于治疗这些肿瘤的成功率很高，治疗方案正在进行调整，以降低短期和长期发病率，同时维持提高后的生存率。
