Staging
According to the International Neuroblastoma Staging System (INSS), there are six stages of ganglioneuroma based on clinical, radiologic, and surgical features.[1]
Stage 1
- Localized tumor confined to the area of origin
- Complete gross excision, with or without microscopically residual disease
- Identifiable ipsilateral and contralateral lymph node negative microscopically
Stage 2A
- Unilateral tumor with incomplete gross excision
- Identifiable ipsilateral nonadherent lymph node negative microscopically
Stage 2B
- Unilateral tumor with complete or incomplete gross excision
- Positive ipsilateral nonadherent lymph nodes
- Identifiable contralateral lymph node negtive microscopically
Stage 3
- Tumor infiltrating across the midline (vertebral column) with or without regional lymph node involvement
- or
- Unilateral tumor with contralateral regional lymph node involvement
- or
- Midline tumor with bilateral regional lymph node involvement or extension by infiltration
Stage 4
- Dissemination of tumor to distant lymph nodes, bone, bone marrow, liver or other organs (except as defined in stage 4S)
stage 4S
- Localized primary tumor as defined for stage 1 or 2 with dissemination limited to liver, skin, and/or bone marrow (<10% tumor) in infants younger than 1 yr
