Popis:	Neuroblastoma (NB) is the most common extra-cranial solid malignancy in children but rarely described in adults, being 10% of all cases diagnosed after the first decade of life. Currently, there are no standard treatment guidelines for adult NB patients. We report the case of 26 year old man who presented with a retroperitoneal neuroblastoma. Treatment included chemotherapy and radiotherapy. The patient remains asymptomatic 1 year after completion of chemotherapy.
