A rare case of fetal bilateral Wilms' tumor in horseshoe kidney: A case report.
Article in International journal of surgery case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introduction and importanceWilms' tumor is the most common malignant kidney tumor in children. The horseshoe kidney is the most common renal fusion malformation. However, Wilms' tumor is rarely identified in horseshoe kidney patients. The incidence of horseshoe kidney is about 1 in 400 cases. Wilms' tumor or Nephrogenic rests can occur in both kidneys, termed bilateral disease, found in only 5-8 % of cases. Management of bilateral Wilms' tumor presents a major clinical challenge in terms of maximizing survival, preserving renal function, and understanding underlying genetic risk. CASE PRESENTATION: Our case is a 28-year-old primigravid female patient, who came for the complaint of decreased abdominal girth and decreased fetal moment. Obstetric ultrasound concluded severe oligohydramnios + renal mass and safe termination was done. Subsequent examinations of the autopsy revealed bilateral Wilms tumor in horseshoe kidney. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: Ultrasound is used to diagnose horseshoe kidneys, whereas Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are often used for staging purposes. Histopathological analysis is the current gold standard for diagnosing Wilms' tumor. Surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy are also used to treat Wilms' tumor.
conclusionFetal Wilms' tumor (WT) is extremely rare, but advances in fetal imaging have led to increased detection of such cases. Managing these cases remains challenging due to the complexity of treatment and the needed for preserving renal function. Prenatal ultrasound is an essential diagnostic tool for early detection and intervention.
