Urachal neuroblastoma: first case report.
Tumours of the urachus are exceptional in children. They represent 0.01% of all tumours and consist of mucosecretory adenocarcinoma and, more rarely, transitional cell carcinoma. We report a 6-month-old child with a urachal mass which, following biopsy, was shown to be a neuroblastoma.
