Abstract
Background: Neuroblastomas account for 97% of all neuroblastic tumors and for approximately 15% of all pediatric cancer fatalities. However, in adults neuroblastoma is a very rare finding. Case Report: Here, we present the case of a 55-year-old patient who was diagnosed with neuroblastoma stage IV one year after the false diagnosis of a non-secretory multiple myeloma. Results: The patient received six cycles of a chemotherapy protocol with cisplatin, etoposide and vindesine alternating with vincristine, dacarbazine, ifosfamide and doxorubicin, but the response to treatment was insufficient (stable disease). Conclusion: The standard chemotherapy protocols used for children are not sufficient for adult patients. Different treatment approaches are needed to improve the prognosis of adult patients with neuroblastoma.
