Abstract
No statistically significant relation was noted between tumor weight and prognosis but there was a negative correlation between patient age and prognosis since children had a more favorable followup than adults. Mixed features in both groups resulted in the worst prognosis. A Weiss criteria grade IV or greater correlated well with a poor prognosis in adults but not children, while staging was more reliable in children.
