Description
Pushpita Roy, Syed Md Asadul Hoque, and Wai Wai Mroy report a 2026 case of Wilms' tumor, a childhood kidney cancer. It arose in a 26-year-old South Asian woman during her second trimester of pregnancy. Adult cases are vanishingly rare, and pregnancy narrows every treatment choice.
A large mass behind the abdomen was found by chance, and surgeons removed the kidney during pregnancy. Tissue checks confirmed high-risk nephroblastoma. Close monitoring followed, and she delivered a healthy early baby by cesarean section, then began chemotherapy. Despite surgery and several drug rounds, the cancer spread widely and care turned palliative, with some symptom relief. The case stresses team care and swift action to protect both mother and child.
