Ganglio neuroma With Mononuclear Cell Infiltration – A Diagnostic Dilemma

Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 8

Abstract

Abstract: Ganglio neuromas are childhood Peripheral Neuroblastic tumors (pNTs) derived from precursor cells of the sympathetic nervous system. The differential diagnosis includes Ganglioneuroblastoma. A definite diagnosis & typing is necessary as prognosis depends on it. Here we report a case of Ganglio neuroma in a nine year old child presenting as solitary mediastinal mass. Our study specially shows the importance of immunohistochemistry in this regard. Keywords:Ganglio neuroma; Peripheral Neuroblastic tumors (pNTs); LCA.
