Good evening. This symbol is included in a blood test report, with bilateral Wilms tumor as the diagnosis.
Here's the context:

All I've seen in my research is the English meaning, "Oral Hairy Leukoplakia", and I don't think that's going to help me here. Suggestions?
As always, a thousand thanks!

Oral hairy leukoplakia refers to a white patch that forms in the mouth. These patches usually appear along the sides of the tongue, or on the top and underside of the tongue or along the inside of the cheek. They may appear shaggy or contain a number of tiny folds or ridges.
OHL can look like thrush, a similar oral condition that occurs in people with HIV. However, thrush usually comes off when it is lightly scraped with a toothbrush, while OHL does not.
OHL is caused by the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). Most people in the world are infected with EBV, and it usually causes disease as the immune system weakens. OHL rarely causes serious physical problems and does not progress to more serious conditions.
In people living with HIV, OHL can occur at any CD4 count, but it is most common among people with less than 200 CD4s. OHL can also occur in HIV-negative people. More than 1 out of 4 people with HIV will develop OHL at some point during the course of their infection. It is most common among men and smokers.
