Pages 331-335 | Published online: 04 Sep 2012
 

Abstract

Neuroblastoma (NB) is the foremost malignant neoplasm of the fetus and neonate. It has a distinct biologic behavior and varied clinical manifestations. The perinatal tumors are most frequently associated with a favorable outcome. We describe an autopsy case of a 2-day-old baby with congenital NB of the left adrenal with extensive metastatic deposits in the liver. Despite the tumor having a favorable histology, it proved to be fatal with death occurring on the second day of life.
