Abstract

Neurogenic tumours (Neuroblastoma, ganglioneuroma and ganglioneuroblastoma) are common among children. We here report a case of three year old female child with ganglioneuroblastoma who presented with status epilepticus at diagnosis. Such a presentation has been decribed rarely. Pertinent literature is being reviewed.
