Abstract
Paratesticular lesions of neuroblastoma are in contrast to testicular infiltration extremely rare. Six cases were reported in literature. It is debated, whether localizations are either metastatic lesions or part of multicentric disease. We present a 9-month-old boy with stage 4 neuroblastoma, in which an unsuspected scrotal localization was already present at birth. This lesion had not grown, in contrast to the other sites. The case illustrates that neuroblastoma is a multicentric tumor, originating in the adrenal area and paratesticular sympathic remnants. The lesions differed in clinical behavior. It further illustrates that multicentric localizations exhibit different clinical behavior.
