Description

In the follow-up of metastatic neuroblastoma mIBG scintigraphy represents the very diagnostic method. A case report of a child with a metastatic recurrence of neuroblastoma is given. Despite clear scintigraphic visualisation serum parameters remained negative. The role of additional bone scintigraphy is inconclusive even retrospectively. (orig.)

Abstract (German)

Bei der Verlaufkontrolle des metastasierenden Neuroblastoms ist die mIBG-Szintigraphie unbestritten das szintigraphische Verfahren der Wahl. Anhand des Krankheitsverlaufes eines Kindes mit metastatischem Rediziv eines Neuroblastoms wird gezeigt, dass ein Rezidiv trotz eindeutiger szintigraphischer Abbildung mit negativen Laborparametern einhergehen kann. Auch retrospektiv ist der Wert einer zusaetzlich durchgefuehrten Knochenszintigraphie schwer beurteilbar. (orig.)
