Abstract
We read with interest the article by de la Monneraye et al on the experience of the Institut Curie of renal tumor biopsy in children treated according to SIOP protocols over a 22‐year period. By presenting the relative proportion of children with non‐Wilms tumors who had clinical, radiological, and biochemical features that are considered “atypical” of Wilms tumors (WT), they support a change to an evidence‐based approach to biopsy in the SIOP community. However, some of their recommendations are not adequately supported by a single institutional series, and we would like to add some reflections from our work based on the national‐ and population‐level data.
