Lipoblastoma-Neuroblastoma: A Rare Paediatric Presentation
Journal Title: New Indian Journal of Surgery - Year 2017, Vol 8, Issue 2
Abstract
Blastomas are tumors that are unique to childhood. They are thought to arise from immature, primitive tissues that present persistent embryonal elements on histology, affect a younger paediatric population and are usually malignant. A blastoma is thought to be a genetic error of normal development rather than the result of any external, environmental factor [1, 2].
