| Abstrakt: | A 31-year-old male came to emergency department with acute abdominal pain from the right flank, diaphoresis and, palpitations. Contrasted abdominal CT revealed a tumor dependent from right adrenal gland and kidney. A laparoscopic radical nephrectomy was made to resect the tumor and pain relief. Pathological analysis reported poorly differentiated neuroblastoma from the right adrenal gland without involvement to kidney and ureter. The patient was sent to oncology clinic to continue with chemotherapy treatment. This is the third case of adult neuroblastoma reported in South America. Adult neuroblastoma is an uncommon cause of malignant neoplasm with an exceptional incidence reported. (© 2024 The Authors.) |
