Renal preservation in high-risk retroperitoneal neuroblastoma: Impact on survival and local progression
2024, European Journal of Surgical OncologyPrimary Intrarenal neuroblastoma in a 5-month-Old infant: A diagnostic dilemma
2022, Journal of Pediatric Surgery Case ReportsCitation Excerpt :Radiology plays a significant part to differentiate neuroblastoma from Wilms' tumor. CT and MRI have 100% sensitivity and 94.9% specificity when identifying the renal invasion of neuroblastoma [8]. By presenting this case, we would like to increase awareness of intrarenal neuroblastoma as a rare entity that should be considered as a differential of intra-renal mass.
Long term outcomes after concurrent ipsilateral nephrectomy versus kidney-sparing surgery for high-risk, intraabdominal neuroblastoma
2019, Journal of Pediatric SurgeryCitation Excerpt :None of the patients in either group developed chronic renal insufficiency, or required hemodialysis or long-term nephrology support during the long-term follow-up period. The risk of nephrectomy during a high-risk neuroblastoma resection averages from 10% to 21%, and pediatric surgeons are often required to make the decision between gross total resection with concurrent ipsilateral nephrectomy and incomplete resection with preservation of kidney intraoperatively [7–9]. In the context of the nephrotoxicity of the neuroblastoma treatment that follows surgery (including chemotherapy, one or tandem SCTs and radiation to the abdominal tumor bed), our practice favors kidney-preservation for high-risk neuroblastoma where possible [12].
Renal neoplasms of childhood
2011, Radiologic Clinics of North AmericaCitation Excerpt :Renal invasion by extrarenal neuroblastoma can be diagnosed accurately by CT examination of the abdomen. A 20% incidence of extension of abdominal neuroblastoma into the kidney is reported.116 It is more common in patients with higher stage (III or IV) tumor and with undifferentiated histology.
