If a mistake occurs during the growth of these cells, the cells begin to multiply at an abnormally fast rate, causing a tumor. Tumors originating in the liver account for 1 to 2 percent of all childhood cancers. Learn more about liver tumors.
Mediastinal tumors occur in the chest cavity, which contains the heart, large blood vessels, trachea, thymus gland and connective tissues between the lungs. Chest wall masses in infants and children may be secondary tumors or the result of other cancers that have spread. Primary mediastinal tumors include neuroblastomas and lymphomas. Learn more about mediastinal and chest wall tumors.
Neuroblastoma is a solid tumor that usually develops in the nerve tissue of the adrenal glands, located on the top of each kidney. Tumors are sometimes also found in the pelvis, neck or chest. Neuroblastoma is typically diagnosed under the age of 5 years old and makes up approximately 7.5 percent of all childhood cancers. Learn more about nueroblastomas.
