Özet

Objectives In Wilms' tumour (WT), secondary malignancies caused by the side effects of intensive treatments remain one of the important problems. Therefore, there is a need for new studies to identify low- and high-risk groups for WT and to improve the treatment regimens of children in the low-risk group. In our study, we aimed to determine the prognostic significance of the cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) biomarker in WT.
