ABSTRACT

Objective · To investigate the clinical characteristics and multidisciplinary treatment of children with clear cell sarcoma of kidney (CCSK). Methods · Data of seven children with CCSK treated at Xinhua Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine between Jan 2011 and Jan 2016 were collected. The retrospective analysis of clinical manifestations, features of imaging and pathology, treatment, and follow-up was performed. Results · Of 7 children with CCSK, 6 were male and 1 was female with the median age of 28 months (4-59 months), and 3 were at stageⅠ, 2 at stage Ⅲ, and 2 at stage Ⅳ. All cases were discussed and evaluated by multidisciplinary teams, including pediatric hematology/oncology, pediatric surgery, pathology, radiology and radiotherapy. CCCG-WT-2009 protocol was adopted to treat these patients. The median follow-up period was 22 months (8-56 months). Six children survived and one died. Conclusion · The multidisciplinary treatment mode can effectively improve the prognosis of CCSK. CCCG-WT-2009 protocol has good therapeutic effect and high cure rate for children with early stage CCSK, but the treatment of advanced stage CCSK needs to be further explored and perfected.
