Abstract
✓ Nine cases of neuroblastoma and one of ganglioneuroma are discussed, and the value of gas myelography emphasized. The authors point out that neuroblastomas may make themselves known by cord compression, and are especially likely to do so in infancy. In patients under 1 year old, recognition of cord compression may be extremely difficult, but appropriate treatment is often curative, and early diagnosis is therefore imperative. In older children the prognosis is much worse.
