- Abstract
The article presents a case study of a 16-year-old girl who was admitted to the hospital due to ganglioneuroblastoma. She has a 2-month history of predominantly motor paraparesis without bladder involvement and low back pain within two months. Based on the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data, she has large intramedullary inhomogeneously enhancing lesion with a few necrotic foci. The article discusses ganglioneuroblastoma, a variant of neuroblastoma that is surrounded by ganglion cells.
