Abstract
- Ganglioneuroma most commonly arise from sympathetic ganglia. This neoplasm may be located wherever ganglion cells are normally found from the skull base to the pelvis, including the adrenal gland. We reported a case of gaglioneuroma in posterior mediastinum in 3 year old boy, which was removed successfully by surgery and confirmed histolgically. We have presented this case and have reviewed the literatures.
