Neuroblastoma
A type of cancer that typically occurs during early development. It usually begins in the adrenal glands, however it can start in the neck, chest, abdomen or spine. Common symptoms are bone pain, or a lump at the origin of the neuroblastoma. This is the most common cancer in babies, and can usually be treated with the standard treatments.
