Factors of Recurrence After Complete Response in Children with Neuroblastoma: A 16-Year Retrospective Study of 179 Cases

Abstract

Age ≥18 months, unfavorable histology, and serum LDH level ≥1400 U/L are independent risk factors for post-remission recurrence in children with neuroblastoma. A newly established recurrence risk stratification has diagnostic advantages in predicting risk of recurrence, which is especially suitable for low- and middle-income countries or regions.
