NEUROBLASTOMA—EMPHASIS ON THE MEDIASTINAL NEUROBLASTOMA

Abstract
1. Seventeen cases of neuroblastoma are reported with special emphasis on those manifested as thoracic masses.2. Three unusual cases are described in detail—one, with bone metastasis and survival.3. It has been shown that the prognosis is better in neuroblastomas of the mediastinum than of other locations.4. Preoperative irradiation in these cases may be more of a hindrance than help. This finding requires further investigation.
