Outcome of paratesticular involvement in infants with neuroblastoma

The authors report on 3 infants suffering from disseminated neuroblastoma (NB) involving the testes or paratesticular structures. INSS stage 4 in 2 cases, and "biological" INSS stage 4S were considered, respectively. One patient with a stage 4 NB died of tumor progression; one patient is under therapy. The patient with NB 4S was cured with preservation of both testes after antineoplastic chemotherapy and reduction of the retroperitoneal primary. J Pediatr Surg 36:E23.
