What are the chances that my child will develop Wilms tumor?

The odds of getting Wilm's Tumor is 1 in 10,000. Based on the data presently available, the risk of occurrence of Wilms tumor in the offspring of a patient treated for a Wilms tumor is less than 2%. What is a VAD and how does it work?

Implanted ports or reservoirs are special types of central venous access systems that are completely implanted under the skin. These ports are often referred to as TIVADs (totally implantable venous access devices) or VADs (venous access device). Implantable VADs consist of a reservoir, an inlet septum in the center of the reservoir, and an outlet catheter that is placed into a vein.

The inlet septum is soft and pliable and designed to accept multiple punctures from special types of noncoring needles (e.g. , Huber needles) while maintaining its leak-tight integrity. The needle is used to infuse medication into the reservoir. The catheter is anchored to muscle or subcutaneous tissue with sutures, and no part of the TIVAD system protrudes through the skin.
