How is neuroblastoma discovered?

Patient's question:

Recently, I also don't know if it was because I was busy after work and ignored the child crying for a long time. I thought it was just a small cold, but who knew it turned out to be neuroblastoma. How is neuroblastoma discovered?

Doctor's answer:

The clinical manifestations of neuroblastoma are primarily an abdominal mass. When the tumor spreads to other areas, patients may also have other symptoms and signs. Tumors in the abdomen or pelvis can cause abdominal swelling but are usually painless. Children may complain of abdominal discomfort, loss of appetite, and dietary restrictions. Children may also experience constipation or nausea, and bowel habits may change; in some cases, hypertension may occur. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
