Ganglioneuroma
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Ganglioneuroma is a generally benign tumor that originates in the cells of the nervous system, particularly in the nerve ganglia. It usually grows slowly and can be located in different regions of the body, such as the chest, the abdomen, or near the spine.
Common symptoms: In many cases it causes no discomfort and is detected incidentally; when it grows, it can cause pressure or discomfort depending on the area where it is located.
When to see a doctor? When there is a finding on imaging studies or persistent discomfort with no clear cause, an evaluation is worthwhile to help characterize the lesion.
Which specialist treats it? The neurosurgeon is the professional who evaluates this type of nerve tissue tumor and defines the follow-up of the ganglioneuroma. Discussing the findings with this specialist allows you to better understand the situation.
