What are the risk factors for neuroblastoma?
For most types of cancer, a “risk factor” is anything that increases a person’s chance of developing cancer. Although risk factors can influence the development of cancer, most do not directly cause cancer. Some people with several risk factors never develop cancer, while others with no known risk factors do.
