Abstract
A patient with a late recurrence (13 years) of Wilms tumor is presented. After relapse with conventional chemotherapy, an objective partial remission was obtained with bleomycin, vinblastine, cyclophosphamide, and cis‐platinum. Stable disease was noted when bleomycin was withheld. Bleomycin in this combination appeared to effect a good response, and further studies of chemotherapy of Wilms tumor should include bleomycin in combination with other active agents.Keywords
