✦ Synopsis

A boy with bilateral adrenal neuroblastoma was presented. The left adrenal neuroblastoma was found when he was at 5 years of age and was curatively excised. The right adrenal neuroblastoma was found when he was at 13 years of age and also was totally excised. The authors consider that the case presented is an extremely rare, metachronous primary bilateral adrenal neuroblastoma, reflecting the multicentric origin of neuroblastoma.
