As more patients live longer after surgery, it is foreseeable that adjacent segment pathology (ASP) will develop in increasi...
متن کاملLoss of mitochondria in ganglioneuromas.
A shift in cellular energy production from oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) to glycolysis, even under aerobic conditions, is called the Warburg effect. To elucidate changes of the mitochondrial energy metabolism in ganglioneuroma (GN) individual OXPHOS enzymes were analyzed by activity assays and by immunohistochemical staining methods. GN (n=7) showed a significant reduction in the activity ...
متن کاملCT of neuroblastomas and ganglioneuromas in children.
Computed tomography (CT) has made a profound impact on the diagnosis and treatment of neuroblastomas and ganglioneuromas. The size, location, calcification, composition, and contiguous spread of the tumors has been well demonstrated by CT. CT is essential for their staging, subsequent treatment, and follow-up. Seventy-seven children were reviewed, 67 with neuroblastoma and 10 with ganglioneurom...
