Ganglioneuroblastomas are a member of the neuroblastic family of tumors most commonly seen in children but they may also occur in adults. Ganglioneuroblastomas have metastatic potential and, like other neuroblastic tumors, osseous metastasis is possible. Imaging features of ganglioneuroblastomas tend to be variable. We describe a case of an adult female who developed a ganglioneuroblastoma of the posterior mediastinum that metastasized to the thoracolumbar spine, highlighting rarely documented osseous metastasis.
神经节神经母细胞瘤是神经母细胞瘤家族的一员，最常见于儿童，但也可能发生于成人。神经节神经母细胞瘤具有转移潜能，与其他神经母细胞瘤一样，可能发生骨转移。神经节神经母细胞瘤的影像学特征往往多变。我们描述了一例成年女性患者，其发生了后纵隔神经节神经母细胞瘤并转移至胸腰椎，突出了罕见的骨转移情况。
