Main Results:

  • Tumors were categorized into five groups with distinct prognoses (Excellent to Poor).
  • Treatment varied from observation/excision to chemotherapy or palliative care.
  • Emphasis on the generally good prognosis in this age group.

Conclusions:

  • A classification system aids in managing neonatal soft tissue tumors.
  • Tailored treatment, avoiding overtreatment, is essential.
  • Further biological studies are needed for rare pediatric tumors.
