Neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial solid tumor in children, with the highest incidence in children aged under 5 years. 'Fast Facts: Neuroblastoma' reviews the epidemiology and what is understood thus far about the pathogenesis of neuroblastoma. The book then dives into the various ways in which neuroblastoma may present and outlines the diagnostic studies needed to complete workup. It includes both a review of prognostic factors and disease risk stratification, and a comprehensive overview of treatment regimens for low-, intermediate- and high-risk disease.
