Grouped by core information, identifiers, and descriptions.

Current candidates are inferred from disease-target-ingredient-herb paths and do not represent a formal recommendation ranking.

Description: NCI2016_CDISC_1602D:A benign neoplasm characterized by the presence of ganglion cells and spindle cell proliferation, located primarily in the brain, ganglia, or adrenal medulla.|NCI2016_02D:A well differentiated, slow growing neuroepithelial neoplasm composed of neoplastic, mature ganglion cells.|NCI2016_02D:A benign neuroblastic tumor of the sympathetic nervous system that occurs in childhood. Ganglioneuroma typically arises from the sympathetic trunk in the mediastinum. Histologic features include spindle cell proliferation (resembling a neurofibroma) and the presence of large ganglion cells. Common presenting features include a palpable abdominal mass, hepatomegaly, and a thoracic mass detected on routine chest X-ray.|MSH2017_2016_08_12:A benign neoplasm that usually arises from the sympathetic trunk in the mediastinum. Histologic features include spindle cell proliferation (resembling a neurofibroma) and the presence of large ganglion cells. The tumor may present clinically with HORNER SYNDROME or diarrhea due to ectopic production of vasoactive intestinal peptide. (From DeVita et al., Cancer: Principles and Practice of Oncology, 5th ed, p966)|HPO2016_07_04:A benign neoplasm that usually arises from the sympathetic trunk in the mediastinum, representing a tumor of the sympathetic nerve fibers arising from neural crest cells.
