Differential Diagnosis And Management In Neonatal Mass Lesions: Ten Years Experience

Abstract

Introduction: Neonatal tumors are rare and there is no standard approach to these diseases. Besides, cancer is an important cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study is to analyze the incidence, clinical features and management of these exceptional tumors which were followed up at our center. Material and Method: We assessed all babies with solid masses admitted to our hospital between 2007-2018 retrospectively. The age, sex distribution, birth weight and gestational age, type of lesion, management and outcome were studied. Results: Of total; there were 62 cases over 10 years in which the most common solid neonatal tumor was germ cell tumor (30.6%). Forty two lesions were located in the abdomen. The majority of cases (48.3%) underwent only surgery for treatment strategy. Conclusion: In spite of limited management experience for newborn tumors, thanks to renovations in prenatal diagnostic methods and sufficient perinatal care, survival can be improved in specialised multidisciplinary centers.
