Wait-and-see approach in a paediatric patient with Neuroblastoma with Metastati...
Moreira, Biana; Foles, Ana; Silva, Diana; Gonçalves, PierreNeuroblastoma is the most common extracranial solid tumour in the paediatric population, accounting for approximately 8-10% of all childhood cancers. It arises from the abnormal proliferation of embryonic neural crest cells which normally give rise to the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) and the adrenal gland medulla. Its prognosis is uniquely heterogeneous, with some children experiencing spontaneous regressio...
