Abstract: Neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial solid tumor in children and accounts for 8% to 10% of all childhood cancers. The spread of metastases is both lymphatic and hematogenous. Hematogenous route occurs most commonly in bone marrow and cortical bone; pancreatic metastases are very rare, and there are few reports about this topic in medical literature. We report the case of a 14-year-old boy who suffers a third relapse of neuroblastoma: in this patient 123I-MIBG confirms that lesions detected by CT were due to a relapse in pancreatic tissue and influenced subsequent therapeutic management.
