Re: How many lymph nodes are enough? Assessing the adequacy of lymph node yield for staging in favorable histology Wilms tumor

The research paper “How many lymph nodes are enough? Assessing the adequacy of lymph node yield for staging in favorable histology Wilms tumor” by Saltzman et al., JPS 2019; 54:2331–1335 [1] was based on an analysis from the National Cancer Database data. The authors intended goal was to develop a better understanding of the “desired LN yield” in favorable-histology Wilms tumor with great effect. One of the principal objectives of Wilms tumor surgery is to accurately stage disease and correctly guide adjuvant treatment.
