Abstract
Neuroblastoma is extremely rare in adults. Advances in classification and therapy have been recently made by an analysis of pediatric tumors. We present the case of a 39-year-old man who had Stage 1 neuroblastoma with unfavorable histologic features that was treated with surgery only. Neuroblastoma should be considered as a diagnosis for adult patients with a suprarenal mass and, if confirmed, neuroblastoma in adults should be classified and treated according to pediatric guidelines.Entities:
