Neonatal Neuroblastoma.

Neuroblastoma accounts for approximately 8% of all pediatric cancers, with 5% diagnosed during the neonatal period. Despite the disproportionate contribution of neuroblastoma to childhood cancer deaths, neonatal neuroblastoma has a favorable prognosis, often with little or no therapy required. Therefore, minimizing therapy and mitigating complications/toxicities are emphasized, including using a watch-and-wait approach for patients at low risk for disease progression/relapse. However, stage MS neuroblastoma exhibits a unique pattern of disseminated disease, can be challenging to manage, and may require early intervention with systemic chemotherapy. In this review, the epidemiology, treatment options, and anticipated outcomes for neonatal neuroblastoma are discussed.
