[Indications of vascular exploration in the diagnosis of abdominal neuroblastoma (author's transl)]. 1978

A Lanuza, and R Aparici, and A Alonso, and A Nogués, and A Marín

The criteria on the indications of angiography are shown in the diagnosis of abdominal neuroblastoma, stressing its' utility in situations where conventional procedures do not supply an accurate diagnosis. Angiography happens to be fundamental for diagnosis retroperitoneal tumours which eventually result in a silent kidney as well as for the differential diagnosis of some hepatic tumours and Pepper's syndrome.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009447 Neuroblastoma A common neoplasm of early childhood arising from neural crest cells in the sympathetic nervous system, and characterized by diverse clinical behavior, ranging from spontaneous remission to rapid metastatic progression and death. This tumor is the most common intraabdominal malignancy of childhood, but it may also arise from thorax, neck, or rarely occur in the central nervous system. Histologic features include uniform round cells with hyperchromatic nuclei arranged in nests and separated by fibrovascular septa. Neuroblastomas may be associated with the opsoclonus-myoclonus syndrome.
