Background: The pathogenesis of neural crest-derived tumours (phaeochromocytoma and neuroblastoma) is complex, and several studies applying functional genomics approaches have been performed in these tumours to date. However, the comparison of their genomic features has not been performed yet.Objective: We have carried out an in silico meta-analysis of altogether 1784 neuroblastoma and 351 phaeochromocytoma samples to establish similarities and differenc...
