Abstract
Aim:To study p53 gene in 26 cases of sporadic Wilms'tumor. Methods:p53 gene was studied by Southern bolt hybridization with p53 cDNA probe.Results:One case with intragenic deletions of p53 gene was histologically classified as stroma predominated Wilms' tumor. Conclusion:The etiology of Wilms' tumor is complex, and the deletion of p53 gene may be correlated with the anaplasia of Wilms' tumor.
