Overview of Neuroblastoma Symptoms.
Description
The symptoms of neuroblastoma are diverse and affect different parts of the body. Some of the most common symptoms include abdominal distention (abdomen, especially the adrenal glands), pancytopenia (bone marrow), bone pain
(bone), lymphadenopathy (lymph nodes), paralysis (spinal cord), subcutaneous skin nodules (skin), proptosis (eyes and periorbital region), fever (systemic), and diarrhoea (gastrointestinal tract).
