Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Wilms tumor is found in the kidneys. Its location is not associated with the ureters, bladder, or the urethra.

Proteinuria accompanies nephrotic syndrome. The BUN may be elevated. Foamy, not bloody, urine accompanies nephrotic syndrome. Sodium loss does not accompany nephrotic syndrome.
