Sažetak
Neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial solid tumour in child population. This type of tumour is the fourth most abundant of all paediatric tumours. Treatments include combination of surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy and stem cell transplant in oncology patients. This survey is conducted in order to determine the most appropriate way of using isotretinoin in patients with neuroblastoma. In children with neuroblastoma this drug can provide significant health benefits when it is used properly. Some adverse reactions of isotretinoin can be very serious and it is important that the child is carefully monitored by parents and his or her physicians and pharmacists together. Pharmacist can have a significant role in supportive treatment of adverse reactions of isotretinoin.
