Intrathoracic neuroblastoma presenting with neonatal cardiorespiratory distress.

We report an unusual presentation of congenital intrathoracic neuroblastoma. Severe respiratory distress was present at birth and several salient clinical signs were suggestive of neonatal myocarditis. Excessive catecholamine secretions may have caused the observed cardiac dysfunction. Peculiar previously unreported cutaneous lesions were also noted in this case.
