Nephroblastoma in children
Nephroblastoma in childhood is a congenital embryonic neoplasm of the kidney of a high degree of malignancy. Nephroblastoma develops from immature embryonic kidney cells and is diagnosed mainly in young children. The high malignancy of a pediatric tumor is expressed in its rapid growth and early metastasis. Metastases spread to neighboring organs, affect the lymph nodes in children.
According to the clinical staging system of nephroblastoma, there are several stages of the disease in children, they have different symptoms that depend on the structural features of the tumor, its location, size, degree of metastasis to other organs of the child.
Methods for diagnosing nephroblastoma in children
In an Israeli clinic, a child with suspected nephroblastoma will be thoroughly examined, and a program of risk-adaptive treatment will be developed at an affordable price. Examination of children diagnosed with nephroblastoma in Israeli clinics includes the use of advanced methods for diagnosing cancer with the provision of high-precision research results.
The following methods are used for the qualitative diagnosis of childhood nephroblastoma:
- laboratory tests;
- molecular genetic tests;
- radiography;
- MRI, CT, ultrasound, PET-CT, nephroscintigraphy;
- angiography;
- assessment of the blood circulation rate in the pathological focus of the child;
- Doppler ultrasonography of the blood flow.
Based on the diagnostic results, specialized specialists jointly decide on further methods of treating a child with diagnosis of nephroblastoma at an affordable price.
After a more accurate diagnosis, the total cost of treatment for the child is determined. The price formation is influenced by the results of the survey. The cost of services can be paid in any convenient way after the completion of all therapeutic procedures.
The use of innovative robotic installations, imaging systems, modern diagnostic methods, progressive therapeutic techniques, organ-preserving minimally invasive surgical interventions contributes to the most effective treatment of children with nephroblastoma.
The cost of treating nephroblastoma in children in a clinic in Israel
Adapted treatment of children with oncology requires an integrated approach. The volume of medical services provided, therapeutic manipulations depends on the operability of the nephroblastoma, on its localization, the degree of metastasis, the severity of symptoms, the structure of the tumor, and on the general condition of the child. The cost of a separate therapeutic manipulation depends on the type, characteristics of the neoplasm, the nature of the course of the disease.
Organ-preserving therapy of nephroblastoma in children is carried out with minimal damage to healthy tissues, it involves the use of the following techniques:
- sparing chemotherapy;
- brachytherapy;
- radiofrequency ablation;
- cryoablation;
- laser vaporization;
- minimally invasive surgery with laparoscopic access.
The cost of treating pediatric nephroblastoma in Israeli clinics depends on a number of etiological factors. The price of services is influenced by the characteristics of the tumor, the stage of cancer, the types of diagnostic procedures, the methods of therapy used, the length of stay of the child in the clinic, etc. Prices for medical services for children in Israel are much lower than in other developed countries. High quality of services and an affordable price distinguish Israeli medicine from other clinics in the world.
Regardless of the course of the disease, the characteristics of nephroblastoma, the degree of its influence on nearby organs, Israeli doctors will find a way out in each specific clinical case, create favorable conditions for stable long-term remission, complete restoration of the child's health.
