Abstract:
Objective To observe the clinical and CT features of neonatal adrenal cystic neuroblastoma(CNB).Methods Eight newborns with adrenal CNB confirmed by surgical pathology were retrospectively analyzed.The clinical data were recorded,and the plain and enhancement abdominal CT manifestations were observed.Results Among 8 cases,6(6/8,75.00％)were detected with prenatal ultrasound,while 2(2/8,25.00％)were detected after birth with ultrasound,all with single adrenal grand lesion,located half in left and half in right adrenal gland(each 4/8,50.00％).The maximum diameter of CNB lesion was 2.3-6.1 cm,with the median maximum diameter of 4.5 cm.CT showed all 8 lesions(8/8,100％)presented as single localized adrenal grand thick-walled cystic lesion,among which 3(3/8,37.50％)with uniform density within the cysts,3(3/8,37.50％)with internal septum within the cysts,1(1/8,12.50％)with slight floating debris and the rest 1(1/8,12.50％)with both internal septum and floating debris in the cyst.No calcification,cross the midline nor surround blood vessels were observed.Seven(7/8,87.50％)lesions had clear while 1(1/8,12.50％)had unclear boundaries,all mildly compressed surrounding structures.The capsule wall and internal septum of the cysts slightly enhanced after enhancement.Multiple liver metastases occurred in 2 cases.Conclusion Most neonatal adrenal CNB were detected before delivery,which mainly presented as thick-walled cystic mass with clear boundary,accompanied by septa and floating debris,and the cystic wall and septa slightly enhanced after enhancement,and liver metastasis might occur.
