    Recently we had a case of a neonate with neuroblastoma. He was incidentally picked up on a Chest X-Ray done for some other reason at age of one hour. The strange mediastinal shadow in the Chest X-Ray turned out to be neuroblastoma stage 3 on further investigation. What about my colleagues out there, how often do you get neuroblastomas in the neonate?
