Slide 1-

Assessment and Diagnosis of Abdominal Masses in Children Resident Education Lecture Series
Slide 2-

General approach to solid tumors What is it? Where is it? Where can it go? The answer to any one of these questions will help answer the other two
Slide 3-

Work up – two components Staging X-ray of primary site CT chest, abdomen, & pelvis CXR (baseline) bone scan Specialty tests Gallium, MIBG, PET Bone marrow ESR Evaluate for complications of the tumor CBC with diff TPN panel LDH, uric acid – tumor lysis, rapid cell growth Lytes, creatinine – renal function Transaminases – hepatic involvement Specialty tests Tumor markers HCG, AFP HVA/VMA ….
Slide 4-

Tissue diagnosis Incisional biopsy Excisional biopsy Special cases… Calicified suprarenal mass + bone scan – might consider getting dx from bone marrow FNA vs excisional biopsy Bias towards excisional → sufficient sample to be representative and to send for special research studies (histology, chromosomes, special studies, research studies)

Abdominal Masses
Slide 6-

Trends Abdominal masses are most common in children under the age of 5 years Most abdominal masses in neonates are retroperitoneal, of kidney origin and are not malignant The older the child the more likely the mass represents a malignant process

Slide 10-

Examination of the Pediatric Abdomen History – time the mass has been present, rapidity of growth, symptoms Undress patient: evaluate for genetic or inherited predisposition as well as the belly Palpate from the pelvis toward the thorax Describe location Size Consistency Ascites Venous congestion of surface Golden and Feusner, 2002, Pediatr Clin N Am, 49:1369-1392
Slide 11-

Neuroblastoma Malignancy in neural crest cells in sympathetic ganglia, adrenal medulla, chest, abdomen; small round blue tumor cells Nonmalignant form is ganglioneuroma Clinical effects r/t tumor size and location Genetic links/factors involved: N-myc oncogene, chromosome deletion
Slide 12-

NB Incidence/ Etiology 4th peds cancer (7-10%) 500-550 new US per year Most common cancer in infants – accounts for 50% of cancer in NBs. M:F ratio: 1.2:1 Average age is 18 months; 80% < 5; small #, genetic? May be a “Silent” tumor presenting with widespread disease at dx 50 (younger) – 70 (older) % of time
Slide 13-

Clinical Presentation Pain, abd mass, other masses, malaise; skin Can occur anywhere in sympathetic NS >50% are retroperitoneal; head/neck, pelvis, posterior mediastinum; +/- spinal cord compression** Metastatic to lymph nodes, bone, BM, liver Fever and malaise; catecholamine secretion: HTN, sweats, irritability; diarrhea; opsoclonus-myoclonus; cerebellar ataxia
Slide 14-

Diagnostic Workup Hx: catecholamine related sx (htn, flushing, sweating, irritability); wt loss, pain, limp PE: preorbital ecchymosis, cutaneous nodules; abd mass; weakness/paralysis CT/MRI to locate tumor; bone scan; MIBG; PET? Labs (urinary catecholamines); Bilateral BMA and bx; chromosome studies

Neuroblastoma Staging 1 Localized tumor; complete excision 2A Unilateral, incomplete gross resection; negative microscopic nodes 2B Unilateral, positive ipsilateral nodes; negative contralateral 3 Across midline, or contralateral nodes 4 Dissemination: bone marrow, liver, skin, bones 4S <1y: local stage 1-2 with mets to BM, liver, skin
Slide 17-

Treatment and Prognosis Surgery: debulk or total removal; curative in low-stage disease; 2nd-look after other Rx Chemotherapy – often platinum based multi-agent ~ stage RT: to primary tumor site; NB cells very radiosensitive; before or after surgery; emergency relief for cord compression, respiratory compromise, proptosis
Slide 18-

NB Treatment cont’d BMT: children with poor prognosis initially may be treated with high dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cell rescue(s); BMT may be used with relapse Prognosis: <1 best (75+% survival); worst for children >2 with stage IV disease (10-20%);

Tumors of the Kidney Primary tumors arising from the kidney, usually Wilms, rapidly growing vascular abdominal tumors; fragile gelatin capsule Others: clear cell sarcoma, renal cell CA, lymphoma, PNET, rhabdoid, … Wilms tumor pathology may be favorable or unfavorable depending on degree of anaplasia present; prognosis and treatment r/t pathology
Slide 24-

Incidence and Etiology Renal tumors represent 5-6% of peds cancer; 460 new US cases/yr Higher in AA, lower in Asians Peak age at 2-3; rare in kids >5; M:F 0.9:1.0 (unilateral) 0.6:1.0 (bilateral) males younger age at diagnosis 1.5% familial in origin; associated with aniridia, hemihypertrophy, GU malforms Genetic factors, deletion or translocations
Slide 25-

What is this syndrome? Omphalocele Macroglossia Gigantism Exophthalmos Hypoglycemia Beckwith-Wiedemann
Slide 26-

Hemi-hypertrophy
Slide 27-

Clinical Presentation Asymptomatic abdominal mass found by family or on routine PE Pain, malaise, hematuria in 20-30%; 25% with HTN; rare subcapsular hemorrhage, with rapid increase in size, anemia, HTN Mets to lungs, liver, regional nodes 7% bilateral, at dx or later
Slide 28-

Diagnostic Workup H and P Labs, renal and hepatic function Imaging studies: US to determine size and shape, vessel involvement, thrombi in major vessels; chest film/CT to check for mets Liver, brain, and bone mets not routinely assessed unless indicated by S/S

Prognosis Histology is most important prognostic factor (favorable histology vs. anaplastic) Stage at diagnosis also crucial Genetic factors Age
Slide 31-

Staging of Wilms Tumors I Limited to kidney; complete resection II Extent beyond kidney, but complete R III Residual tumor, confined to abdomen IV Hematogenous mets (lung, liver, bone, brain) or lymph nodes outside abdomen V Bilateral renal involvement at diagnosis Tumor spill at time of surgery – considered stage III
Slide 32-

Treatment and Prognosis Surgery initially, with exam of contralateral kidney; Preop chemotherapy if intravascular spread or very large invasive tumors; if bilateral; NA argument: Preop Chemo prevents adequate assessment of staging Considered Stage III if imaged only
Slide 33-

Treatment and Prognosis cont’d Bilateral: preop Chemo; nephrectomy of worse side, partial on other Chemotherapy: regimens based in national groups RT: port extended across midline to prevent scoliosis; if favorable histology, RT only for Stage III and IV; post lung RT, adjust Chemo Recurrence: worse if <1 year; on chemo Prognosis: <50% - 100% (stage/histology)
Slide 34-

Malignant Hepatic Tumors Hepatoblastoma; median age of 1 yr; Hepatocellular carcinoma, median age of 12 yrs, associated with hepatitis B <15 yrs, prolonged use of metabolic steroids Nonmalignant: hemangiomas (50% of all hepatic tumors)
Slide 35-

Clinical Presentation Hepatoblastoma (80%): asymptomatic abdominal mass; osteopenia; Hepatocellular Ca (20%): abdominal distention, RUQ mass; pain, N & V; jaundice; splenomegaly; Elevated alphafetoprotein level
Slide 36-

Treatment and Prognosis Preop CTX followed by complete resection Hepatoblastoma: High cure rates, with cure possible if mets are resected (> 65%) Hepatocellular Ca: Difficult to resect and difficult to cure even with complete resection (<20%) RT of little benefit Chemo-embolization? Orthotopic liver transplant?
Slide 37-

Prognosis Hepatoblastoma Resectable tumors At diagnosis (stage I & II ) - 90% Following chemo-reduction (III) ~ 80% Unresectable tumors - 50% Metastases at diagnosis - 10%
Slide 38-

Prognosis Hepatocellular Carcinoma Children with initially resectable HCC have a good prognosis and may benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy. The outcome for children with unresectable or metastatic HCC continues to be dismal with current therapies.

From ABP Certifying Exam Content Outline Formulate a differential diagnosis for an abdominal mass Know that multicystic dysplastic kidneys and hydronephrosis are the most common causes of palpable abdominal masses in infants Recognize that children with hemihypertrophy and somatic overgrowth syndromes should be periodically evaluated for the development of associated embryonal tumors
Slide 44-

From ABP Certifying Exam Content Outline, continued Understand that a neuroblastoma usually presents as a nontender abdominal mass Understand that urinary catecholamine excretion is increased in most patients with a neuroblastoma and that tests of urine for VMA and VHA are appropriate screening tests for the tumor Know that Wilms tumor is associated with hemihypertrophy and aniridia, somatic overgrowth, and/or genitourinary abnormalities Understand that Wilms tumor usually presents as an abdominal mass and may cause hypertension Recognize the tumors that may produce precocious puberty (eg, in liver, CNS, ovary, testes, adrenal glands)
