• Recognize and apply key histo-morphological criteria for the diagnosis of Wilms and non-Wilms paediatric renal tumours.
• Utilize appropriate immunohistochemical panels and understand their role in resolving challenging diagnostic scenarios.
• Appreciate the impact of molecular and genetic advances on tumour classification, risk stratification, and patient management.
• Identify and navigate diagnostic pitfalls and uncommon entities encountered in paediatric renal tumour pathology.
• Integrate pathological findings into multidisciplinary paediatric oncology care, enhancing diagnostic confidence and clinical relevance.
