Case report: Neuroblastoma is 7-10% of all pediatric cancer cases. Primary testicular and paratesticular neuroblastoma is very rare in the literature. We aimed to present our experience with a 4-year-old patient with an abdominal and right paratesticular mass. The patient's imaging revealed extensive lung and bone metastases. In the diagnostic biopsy, the primary tumour consistent with poorly differentiated neuroblastoma and the right paratesticular mass biopsy revealed neuroblastoma metastasis.
