Abstract/OtherAbstract:
An 8-year-old girl presented with a relatively asymptomatic abdominopelvic mass that was detected in the neonatal period. She harbored a presacral mass with intraspinal extension and a right posterior mediastinal mass; all were excised completely and were ganglioneuromas. The report discusses the maturation of neuroblastoma-ganglioneuromas and details the staged management of sporadic synchronous ganglioneuromas in a child, probably the first in published English literature.
