Abstract

Onco-nephrology is a recent and evolving medical subspecialty devoted to the care of patients with kidney disease and unique kidney-related complications in the context of cancer and its treatments, recognizing that management of kidney disease as well as the cancer itself will improve survival and quality of life. While this area has received much attention in the adult medicine sphere, similar emphasis in the pediatric realm has not yet been realized. As in adults, kidney involvement in children with cancer extends beyond the time of initial diagnosis and treatment. Many interventions, such as chemotherapy, stem cell transplant, radiation, and nephrectomy, have long-term kidney effects, including the development of chronic kidney disease (CKD) with subsequent need for dialysis and/or kidney transplant. Thus, with the improved survival of children with malignancy comes the need for ongoing monitoring of kidney function and early mitigation of kidney-related comorbidities. In addition, children with kidney transplant are at higher risk of developing malignancies than their age-matched peers. Pediatric nephrologists thus need to be aware of issues related to cancer and its treatments as they impact their own patients. These facts emphasize the necessity of pediatric nephrologists and oncologists working closely together in managing these children and highlight the importance of bringing the onco-nephrology field to our growing list of pediatric nephrology subspecialties.
