Özet

Aims: There is a subgroup of patients with Wilms' tumour (WT) having favourable clinicopathological features but adverse outcome. We aimed to investigate the prognostic significance of angiogenesis and whether it can be used for predicting which patients will fall into this category, and the possible role of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) on angiogenesis in WT.
