Journal Title: IJSR-International Journal Of Scientific Research - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 4

Abstract

Neuroblastomas are among the most important tumors of extra cranial origin in pediatric patients. They arise from embryonal cells involved in the development of the sympathetic nervous system, whose differentiation has been arrested [1, 2]. This article describes an atypical presentation of ganglioneuroblastoma in a 52 year old male patient. X- Ray left hand in AP and Lateral views showed it as a soft tissue swelling. Excision was done under digital block, and excised specimen was sent to department of pathology for histo pathological examination. HPE showed it as gangioneuroblastoma and pathologists advised to get immunohistochemistry for cathepsin D to be done.
