Neuroblastoma

B López-Ibor et al. Pediatr Clin North Am. 1985 Jun.

Abstract

Neuroblastoma originates in the adrenal medulla or anywhere in the body that sympathetic tissue normally is present. It may present with a variety of symptoms due to primary tumor, metastatic disease, or unusual signs and symptoms such as opsoclonus-myoclonus or severe diarrhea. Despite the fact that this neoplasm responds to a variety of therapeutic modalities, it remains one of the most frustrating and difficult childhood tumors to treat and cure.
