Neurological complications of neuroblastic tumors: experience of a single center
Child's Nervous System, 09/02/09

Aydin GB et al. – The prevalence rates of Horner's syndrome, OMA, CNS metastasis, and SCC were found to be 3.6%, 1.8%, 2.2%, and 9.4%, respectively. Metastasis to the CNS indicated a very poor prognosis. No differences in neurological improvement in patients with SCC were found between those treated with radiotherapy, laminectomy, or chemotherapy alone, but laminectomy and radiotherapy caused significant late sequelae. Early diagnosis and proper management is critical to avoid long–term sequelae in patients with SCC.
