Abstract

Objective: The objective of this descriptive study was to investigate the age distribution, gender prevalence,
clinical presentations, histological patterns, tumor staging, and outcomes of WT in a local pediatric population.
Material and Methods: The study conducted over 9 months at Children Hospital, Lahore. The study included
120 patients with WT. Clinical data, age, gender, and staging information were collected. Biopsies were
analyzed for histological patterns, and SPSS version 26 was used for statistical analysis.
Results: The study revealed a mean age of 5.79 years, with a slight male predominance (58.3%). Abdominal
mass was the predominant clinical presentation (47.5%), and the tri-phasic histological pattern, often with blastemal predominance, was most prevalent (52.5%). The majority of cases were diagnosed at Stage-I (59.2%). No significant associations were found between age, gender, and tumor subtypes.
Conclusion: The findings reveal a predominance of the tri-phasic histological pattern with blastemal predominance, aligning with global trends.
