ABSTRACT
Wilms' tumor is the most common malignant abdominal tumor in the adolescent and pediatric period, whereas adult Wilms' tumor is uncommon. Wilms' tumor often originates in the kidney. Extrarenal Wilms' tumor is rare and has been considered "unstageable". Therefore, treatment and long-term survival have not been uniformly reported. We report a 24 year-old female who developed extrarenal Wilms' tumor, in the retroperitoneal space. She was misdiagnosed for ovarian neoplasm and underwent debulking operation, by which Wilms' tumor was confirmed. Palliative chemotherapy and radiotherapy were performed.
