Neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial solid tumor in children, often manifests in the retroperitoneal region. We present a case of a 3-year-old boy with no previous medical history, presented for abdominal distension. Physical examination revealed a distinct, mobile, solid mass situated in the left lumbar region. Abdominal magnetic resonance imaging displayed a well delimited, well-encapsulated mass attached to the tail of the pancreas. Urinary catecholamine metabolite levels were negative. Surgical exploration revealed that the tumor was primitively related to the left adrenal gland, and a complete resection was performed. The postoperative recovery was uncomplicated. NMYC oncogene was non-amplified.
