The WHO Classification of Genetic Tumour Syndromes: Considerations for Genetics
The WHO Classification of Tumours underpins the diagnosis of neoplastic conditions. The new WHO classification of genetic tumour syndromes (GTS) provides international standards for their diagnosis. This diagram highlights the chromosomal distribution of the genes involved in the GTS covered in this classification.

ABSTRACT Background Wilms tumor (WT) treatment imposes a significant time burden on patients and their families. Time toxicity is a patient‐centered metric that quantifies the burden of healthcare interaction. We sought to define time toxicity in the first year after diagnosis of WT and hypothesized that it would increase as tumor stage and treatment ...

ABSTRACT Background Pediatric sarcomas are a heterogeneous group of tumors that contribute disproportionately to cancer mortality in children. Although congenital anomalies are among the strongest known risk factors for childhood cancer, the risk of specific sarcoma subtypes among affected individuals has not yet been thoroughly evaluated. Procedure We

ABSTRACT Objective Prenatal genetic testing for imprinting disorders is rarely requested with the exception of Beckwith‐Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) which is associated with specific ultrasound findings (e.g., placental mesenchymal dysplasia, omphalocele). However, genetic testing for BWS is challenging as aberrant DNA methylation has to be addressed which

The Swedish National Pediatric Cataract Register (PECARE): Coexisting systemic disorders 2007–2023
Abstract Purpose To analyse the frequency and type of coexisting systemic disorders in children operated on for cataract in Sweden. Methods Data were retrieved from the Swedish National Pediatric Cataract Register (PECARE) for children operated between January 1, 2007, and December 31, 2023 (n = 975), including follow‐ups at age 1, 2, 5 and 10 ...
