A histologic analysis of 75 consecutive cases of Wilms' tumor in the Manchester (England) hospital region has been carried out. A classification based on the tubular status is described. A comparison of the histologic findings with the clinical staging and survival was undertaken, and it was found that the histologic classification was significantly correlated with both stage and survival.
