A Clinical Study of Survival Rate and Prognostic Factors in Advanced Neurobalstoma in Children
Seung Yang, Ho Joon Im, Nam Su Kim, Hahng Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1998;41(5):684-694.   Published online May 15, 1998
Purpose : Despite the use of improved therapeutic modalities, long-term survival remains poor in patients in stage Ⅲ or Ⅳ of neurobalstoma and for over 1 year olds at diagnosis. We evaluated the long-term survival rate and related prognostic factors in advanced neuroblastoma. Methods : Twenty-nine children diagnosed with stage Ⅲ or Ⅳ neuroblastoma after 1 year of age, between May...
