Abstract |
Ganglioneuroma is a rare benign neurogenic tumor which arises from sympathetic nervous system. It has a wide distribution but is located frequently in the posterior mediastinum. In Korea there is no report of ganglioneuroma in childhood. We observed a case of ganglioneuroma which arised from sympathetic nerve ganglia in the
posterior mediastinum in all year old girl, and the tumor was removed successfully by posterior approach. We have presented this case and have reviewed the literatures.
