Neuroblastoma.

Neuroblastoma originates in the adrenal medulla or anywhere in the body that sympathetic tissue normally is present. It may present with a variety of symptoms due to primary tumor, metastatic disease, or unusual signs and symptoms such as opsoclonus-myoclonus or severe diarrhea. Despite the fact that this neoplasm responds to a variety of therapeutic modalities, it remains one of the most frustrating and difficult childhood tumors to treat and cure.
