It has an excellent prognosis with a 5-year survival close to 90%. Nevertheless, the story is not finished, as we have to understand why 10% of children continue to have a poor prognosis. Furthermore, the long term follow-up of the survivors shows that they have significant side effects (renal, cardiovascular, second malignancy) related to their treatment (radiotherapy, surgery) or to their underlying condition. During this Grand Round, we will present the challenges we face currently in the management of children with WT and the strategies to close the gaps.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Speakers<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Professor Yves Heloury<\/strong> is a Paediatric Urologist at The Royal Children&#8217;s Hospital.
