What are the symptoms of neuroblastoma?

Patient's question:

My uncle's daughter also suffers from childhood neuroblastoma. She used to be very healthy. No problem. But the most she noticed was that her daughter disliked talking to herself and didn't like answering others. She was confused every day. Why would she do that?

Doctor's answer:

Surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy remain the three main methods for treating neuroblastoma. Prognosis based on clinical diagnosis determines the evolution of treatment. Local tumors are generally recommended for surgical removal, while for those that cannot be surgically removed, chemotherapy, surgery, chemotherapy, or radiotherapy may be adopted. Drugs sensitive to neuroblastoma include cyclophosphamide, vincristine, etoposide, carboplatin, and cisplatin, as well as antitumor antibiotics such as adriamycin and ifosfamide. The effectiveness is uncertain.
