Histological studies were conducted into 25 cases of neuroblastoma selected from consecutive biopsy material. They were 4 grade I, 5 grade II and 16 grade III tumours, according to the classification of Hughes et al. Two of the grade I neuroblastomas exhibited diffuse growth patterns. The other two were diagnosed as composite types. The histological signs of differentiation and their prognostic value are discussed.
