title: Neurocristopathy in mother (ganglioneuroblastoma) and daughter (aganglionosis): incidental or causal?
abstract: We report on a mother who had been treated for a ganglioneuroblastoma and her daughter who had a long segment aganglionosis. Review of the relevant literature and recent molecular findings warrant the conclusion that most likely, there is a causal relation between these two neurocristopathies.
