Article Synopsis
- The study investigates neonatal neuroblastoma (NNBL), a rare tumor, focusing on cases detected before or after birth.
- Out of 120 diagnosed neuroblastoma cases, 12 were NNBL, with 50% identified ante-natally and 50% post-natally.
- Both diagnosis groups showed similar tumor characteristics and staging, with a remarkable 100% survival rate for all patients, indicating that the timing of diagnosis does not affect outcomes.
Background And Aim: Neonatal small left colon syndrome (NSLCS) is considered a rare cause of neonatal intestinal obstruction, with few documented cases in the English literature. Maternal diabetes has been reported in 40% to 50% of the published cases of NSLCS. Currently, the incidence of maternal diabetes is increasing, but there has been no study to ascertain the incidence and significance of NSLCS in this population.
