Introduction: Currently, few prospective guidelines exist for the surveillance of children with low-risk neuroblastic tumors (LRNBTs), including ganglioneuroma or ganglioneuroblastoma intermixed. This study aims to describe our institutional approach to LRNBT surveillance following surgical resection or nonoperative management. We hypothesize that length of surveillance can be reduced due to low recurrence risk.

BACKGROUND Cardiac tumors are divided into 2 categories: primary, originating from the heart, and metastatic, which spread to the heart from a different location, with metastatic tumors representing the vast majority. Cardiac tumors, depending on the size and location, can predispose patients to arrhythmic or hemodynamic complications. We present a patient with a history of B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in remission for 3 years who developed acute onset congestive heart failure and complete heart block secondary to DLBCL invasion of the myocardium.

Immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is an immune-mediated disease with many important manifestations in hematopoietic and lymphoid tissue. IgG4 is the least naturally abundant IgG subclass, and the hallmark feature of IgG4-RD is markedly increased IgG4-positive plasma cells (with an IgG4 to IgG ratio >40%) in affected tissue, along with elevated polyclonal serum IgG and IgG4 in most patients. Histological diagnosis is essential, and other key features include storiform fibrosis, lymphoplasmacytic infiltrate, tissue eosinophilia, and obliterative phlebitis.
