Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To explore and summarize the experience of surgical treatment for primary retroperitoneal tumor (PRT)in children.
METHODS:Clinical data of 17 patients with PRT treated from January 2001 to January 2008 were retrospectively analyzed, including image examination, pathologic examination and surgical procedure.
RESULTS:Seventeen patients underwent complete resection; 8 benign PRT, and 9 malignant PRT were diagnosed by operation and postoperative pathologic examination. Vascular surgery was done on 11 patients, 6 cases of multi-visceral resection, 1 vascular transplant, and 1 multi-visceral resection. Two patients had recurrent malignant PRT.
CONCLUSION:For pediatric complex retroperitoneal tumors, complete resection can reduce the recurrence and improve the long-term survival.
