ABSTRACT

The tendency to present nodules in the skin is one of the differences between the presentation of metastases in pediatric ages. The differential diagnosis of blueberry muffin baby or bluish skin nodules is divided into neoplastic and non-neoplastic. It is important to rule out congenital infections, blood dyscrasias, fetal transfusion syndrome, Bean syndrome and neoplastic skin infiltrations among others. We present a 3-month-old baby with cutaneous metastases is described as the first presentation of adrenal neuroblastoma.
