Abstract
- Background: Metanephric adenoma is an extremely rare renal neoplasm, especially in pediatrics. Chemotherapy combined with surgery in metanephric adenoma has not been reported.<br />Methods: We describe a case of metanephric adenoma in a child less than 2 years old, which were treated by chemotherapy combined with surgery.<br />Results: Nephron sparing surgery was performed after regular chemotherapy, and the pathological result was metanephric adenoma.<br />Conclusion: Pediatric metanephric adenoma is extremely rare; the clinical manifestations and imaging examinations lack specificity. Nephron sparing surgery is recommended as the preferred treatment for metanephric adenoma. Long-term follow-up and more in-depth molecular genetic research are still needed to determine the benign or malignant of metanephric adenoma and whether chemotherapy drugs have an effect on it.<br />Competing Interests: The authors declare that the research was conducted in the absence of any commercial or financial relationships that could be construed as a potential conflict of interest.<br /> (Copyright © 2022 Hu, Zhao, Wan, Bu, Chen and Lu.)
