Definition

Ganglioneuroblastoma is a rare, intermediate-grade tumor that arises from nerve tissues and is characterized by a mix of immature nerve cells (neuroblasts) and mature ganglion cells. It is most commonly found in children and can occur anywhere along the sympathetic nervous system, including the adrenal glands, neck, chest, and abdomen.
