title: In situ neuroblastoma: an important concept related to the natural history of neural crest tumors.
abstract: Since the initial description of the entity known as "in situ neuroblastoma," thoughts about the origin, fate, and clinical significance of this anatomic finding have influenced the field of neuroectodermal tumor biology. This paper discusses the importance of the original description of in situ neuroblastoma and how the entity fits into contemporary models of neuroblastoma heterogeneity.
