  • Neuroblastic tumors may be grouped according to International Neuroblastoma Pathology Classification (Shimada classification) into two groups: schwannian stroma rich group and a schwannian stroma poor group as illustrated below:[1]

Schwannian stroma rich group
 
Schwannian stroma poor group
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Undifferentiated neuroblastoma
Poorly differentiated neuroblastoma
Differentiating neuroblastoma
 
Nodular ganglioneuroblastoma
Intermixed ganglioneuroblastoma
Maturing ganglioneuroma
Mature ganglioneuroma
 
 
 
 
 
 


  • Based on the degree of cellular maturity and composition neuroblastoma may be further classified into three subtypes according to the International Neuroblastoma Pathology Classification which include:
  • Undifferentiated neruoblastoma
  • Poorly differentiated neuroblastoma
  • Differentiating neuroblastoma
  • The table below summarizes the differnces between the three histological subtypes of neurublastoma:
Risk Factor Description
Undifferentiated neruoblastoma Completely formed by neuroblasts with no maturity of ganglion cells
Poorly differentiated neuroblastoma Mostly formed by neuroblasts with less the 5% maturing ganglion cells
Differentiating neuroblastoma

Predominantly formed by neuroblasts but with more than 5% mature ganglion cells
