## Background: Complete maturation (cytodifferentiation) of treated metastatic wilms' tumor is an infrequent occurrence. in a large series of reports, wilms' metastases have generally contained malignant blastemic elements admixed with lesser amounts of cytodifferentiated mesenchyme. the authors de
The ability of malignant cells to metastasize from a primary tumor and from secondary lesions is the most life-threatening aspect of cancer. Reported factors enabling this metastatic cascade to occur include reduced levels or an absence of cell-adhesion molecules, proteolytic enzymes, and angiogenic
This article deals with observations of the clinical behavior of metastatic germ cell cancers of testicular origin. Therefore, when we speak of biology of metastases, we refer to that seen by the clinician as opposed to the laboratory scientist. First, we will review our experience with chemotherapy
