- Abstract:
- Objective To analyze the clinical features, treatment and prognosis of children with mediastinal neurogenic tumors.Methods The clinical symptoms, imaging manifestations, treatment, pathological types and prognosis of 30 children with mediastinal neurogenic tumors from January 2012 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.Results The average age of children was 4.7 years (1-13 years), There were 20 males and 10 females. There were no specific symptoms in 8 cases (8/30, 26.7%), 7 cases were accidentally found during the examination, and 1 case was found during the follow-up of adrenal ganglioneuroblastoma; 18 children were hospitalized due to respiratory symptoms (18/30, 60.0%), manifested as cough, expectoration, wheezing and so on; 2 cases of chest and back pain (2/30, 6.7%); 2 cases of supraclavicular lymph node enlargement (2/30, 6.7%); 12 cases were accompanied by fever (12/30, 40.0%).16 cases (53.3%) underwent thoracoscopic surgery, 9 cases (30.0%) thoracoscopic assisted thoracotomy, and 5 cases (16.7%) thoracotomy.The postoperative pathology revealed that there were 4 cases (13.3%) neuroblastoma, 8 cases (26.7%) ganglioblastoma, 16 cases (53.3%) ganglioneuroma, 1 case (3.3%) schwannoma, and 2 cases (6.7%) Primitive neuroectodermal tumors.Among them, 16 cases were benign (53.3%) while the rest 14 cases were malignant (46.7%).Conclusion The symptoms of mediastinal tumors in children are atypical which makes them difficult to be found early.Chest CT and MRI are the main means for diagnosis, and the prognosis is relatively ideal after surgical treatment.
