ABSTRACT

Neuroblastoma occurs most frequently in children. It, however, may occur in adults. The peripheral neuroblastoma in adult is a primitive neuroectodermal tumor arising from peripheral tumor arising from peripheral nerve. It is exceedingly rare and estimated less than 1% of all malig-peripheral nerve tumors. We report a case of adult peripheral neuroblastoma arising in left lower extremity, who was treated with local excision and radiation.
