Pheochromocytoma is a diverse entity with variable clinical manifestations and sometimes atypical laboratory and imaging findings. Cystic pheochromocytoma, as reported by Yamagata and colleagues (1), is an exceedingly rare variant of pheochromocytoma of the adrenal gland.
Abstract. Neuroblastoma is a tumour derived from primitive cells of the sympathetic nervous system and is the most common solid tumour in childhood. Interestingly, most infants experience complete regression of their disease with minimal therapy, even with metastatic disease.

Neuroblastoma, the most common extracranial pediatric solid tumor remains a clinical enigma with out-comes ranging from cure in >90% of patients with locoregional tumors with little to no cytotoxic therapy, to <30% for those >18 months of age at diagnosis with metastatic disease despite aggressive multimodal-ity therapy.

Clinical and laboratory research over the last three to four decades has shed considerable light on the biology of neuroblastoma (NB), the most common extracranial tumor of childhood. However, it remains one of the most enigmatic solid tumors for pediatric oncologists.
