We report a 13-month-old girl with primary intrarenal neuroblastoma initially diagnosed as Wilms' tumor. Intrarenal neuroblastoma is exceedingly rare in pediatric age that may masquerade as Wilms' tumor clinically and radiographically and it is important to differentiate for management.

Introduction: Neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial solid tumor found in childhood.

Case Representation: Primary renal neuroblastoma has been reported in the literature as case reports. Almost all cases had a preliminary diagnosis of Wilms tumor and were diagnosed as neuroblastoma after nephrectomy.

Background: Neuroblastoma (NB) is the most common extracranial solid tumor of childhood, and high-risk disease is resistant to intensive treatment. Histotripsy is a focused ultrasound therapy under development for tissue ablation bubble activity. The goal of this study was to assess outcomes of histotripsy ablation in a xenograft model of high-risk NB.

Neuroblastoma (NBL) and nephroblastoma present with abdominal mass and various imaging features help in differentiating the two; however, localisation is difficult in large masses and at times imaging features can be confusing. Here, we describe the case of large left-sided NBL arising from the adrenal and involving the left kidney with moderate hydronephrosis.

Adaptive immune cells with regulatory function reportedly mediate immune escape in a variety of tumors. Little is known regarding the relevance of the most prominent regulatory cell populations, namely Foxp3+ T regulatory cells (Tregs) and CD19+IL-10+ B regulatory cells (Bregs), for neuroblastoma (NB) survival. After establishing a novel immunocompetent syngeneic NB mouse model where orthotopic tumors can be generated after intrarenal injection of NB975A cells, we studied the importance of Tregs and Bregs in Foxp3-DTR mice whose Tregs can be depleted by diphtheria toxin (DT) application as well as in CD19-specific IL-10 deficient mice that lack IL-10+ Bregs (CD19cre × IL-10 mice).

In neuroblastoma, MYCN amplification and 11q-deletion are important, although incomplete, markers of high-risk disease. It is therefore relevant to characterize additional alterations that can function as prognostic and/or predictive markers. Using SNP-microarrays, a group of neuroblastoma patients showing amplification of one or multiple 12q loci was identified.
