Peripheral neuroblastic tumors represent the fourth-largest group of malignant tumors in childhood. The majority of these tumors are neuroblastomas, which can be classified into undifferentiated, poorly differentiated, and differentiating subtypes. In addition, peripheral neuroblastic tumors include ganglioneuroblastoma, a composite tumor composed of Schwannian cell stroma and neuroblasts as well as benign ganglioneuroma.
