- Try building your search one term at a time, and be as specific as you can! Search term example: "chronic cough".
- Do not enter multiple findings such as "anemia, chronic cough, weight loss, vomiting" all at the same time.
- After selecting your term from the search results a list of possible diagnoses will be generated. If the list is too long, you will be able to narrow it down by entering additional terms.
- Do not enter values such as "heart rhythm 110" or "sodium 125", instead use "tachycardia" or "hyponatremia".

Neuroblastomas are neural tumors and abnormalities that have cell origins from the neural crest; ICD-9CM CODES; 194_0 Neuroblastoma, unspecified site; 8% of all solid tumors of childhood; Male >female ratio Childhood; Infants and children; N-myc protooncogene; loss of short arm chromosome 1 (1p36) found in some children; CLINICAL: Mass in abdomen, neck, or chest; Spinal cord compression; Dancing eyes; Chronic pain; Ecchymosis around eyes; Weight loss; Fever; DIFFERENTIAL: Other childhood tumors; Wilms’ tumor; Diagnosis: Biopsy of tumor; Urinary catecholamines; Bone marrow aspiration; CT scan or MRI abdomen/chest or head; there is hope for recovery with aggressive treatment ;Surgery; Multiagent chemotherapy (eg, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, dacarbazine, melphalan, doxorubicin, cisplatin); Radiotherapy ;either death or cure ;Overall survival is >40% Survival in stage I is >95%, whereas survival in stage II is <20% [Evans classification];-------[Ferri"s Clinical advisor 2005]--------
