Abstract

Neuroblastoma is the most common cancer in babies and the third most common cancer in children, behind only leukemia and brain tumor. Knowing this, oncology has been working hard with research and equipment to bring the best possible treatment and diagnosis as quickly as possible to combat not only neuroblastoma but also all cancers that the individual may contract. When we speak of neuroblastoma, cancer that originates from cells of the nervous system, but we do not necessarily find the same in the nervous system since the embryonic process, the majority of which develop in the adrenal gland, so most tumors are found in the region of the abdomen, it can manifest itself in cells near the spinal cord, it can also develop in toxin.
