Research Notes on Neuroblastoma
Neuroblastoma is single-handedly the most common cancer in infants and the fourth most common in children. Approximately 650 new cases of neuroblastoma are recorded each year in the United States. Diagnosis is usually made at the age of about 17 months. About one third of cases are diagnosed by a year. Almost 90% of cases are diagnosed by the age of 5. Very seldom are cases found in people over the age of 10 (only 2%). Rarely, diagnoses is made through ultrasound before a child is born.
