Abstrakt: | Unlabelled: Hepatic metastases of neonatal neuroblastoma can cause multiple organ failure due to rapid growth and severe hepatomegaly. The objective of this work is to present two infants with neuroblastoma stage IV and IVs in a critical situation that needed a decompressive abdominal silo and surgical liver reduction for definitive abdominal closure. Currently both children are 6 years old and they are free from disease. Conclusion: The placement of a silo for abdominal decompression is still an indication for salvage. Surgical hepatic reduction is an alternative for the early closure of the abdomen avoiding complications due to infection or dehiscence of the silo. |
