Abstract
A ganglioneuroblastoma developed in a 35 mo. old boy with both the fetal hydantoin and fetal alcohol syndromes. With 2 recent reports in the literature, a relationship between fetal hydantoin syndrome and the development of neural crest tumors seems probable. Infants exposed in utero to hydantoins should be closely observed for the development of these tumors.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
