Brief Summary
This laboratory study is looking into biomarkers in samples from younger patients with kidney cancer. Studying samples of tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. It may also help doctors find better ways to treat cancer.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
FAK expression in pediatric renal tumors
Baseline
Study Arms (1)
Basic science (FAK expression)
Archived tumor tissue samples are analyzed for FAK expression by IHC. IHC staining is compared in normal renal tissue, Wilms tumor (routine and anaplastic), malignant rhabdoid tumor of the kidney, clear cell sarcoma of the kidney, and mesoblastic nephroma.
Interventions

- Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue samples from patients diagnosed with the following renal tumors:
- Anaplastic Wilms tumor
- Malignant rhabdoid tumor of the kidney
- Clear cell sarcoma of the kidney
