Neuroblastoma

Neuroblastoma is a malignant tumor of neural crest cells, the cells that give rise to the sympathetic nervous system, which is observed in children.

Cardiomyopathy

A myocardial disorder in which the heart muscle is structurally and functionally abnormal, in the absence of coronary artery disease, hypertension, valvular disease and congenital heart disease sufficient to cause the observed myocardial abnormality.

A catecholamine-secreting neuroblastoma leading to hydrops fetalis.

FEMALE Infant
Neuroblastoma presenting with dilated cardiomyopathy.
Kato M, Hirata S, Kikuchi A, Ogawa K, Kishimoto H, Hanada R.
Pediatr Blood Cancer. 2008;50(2):391-2.
The prompt improvement of cardiac function following treatment of neuroblastoma suggested that cardiomyopathy in this patient was caused by the increase in catecholamines secreted by neuroblastoma and that reduction in catecholamines by treatment of neuroblastoma led to improvement in the cardiomyopathy.

The reason why such a cardiomyopathy has never been reported in patients with neuroblastoma remains unclear.
