Abstract: Adrenal neuroblastoma is a malignant tumor with high incidence in children, and because of its insidious onset and diverse and non-specific clinical symptoms, it is mostly stage four when identified. Early clinical detection is difficult and diagnosis is often delayed. Through the analysis and summary of two cases of adrenal neuroblastoma misdiagnosed recently in Shandong Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the reasons for the misdiagnosis of this disease were systematically reviewed from the grassroots level and disease characteristics, which will provide a reference for pediatricians to clinically diagnose and identify adrenal neuroblastoma in order to reduce misdiagnosis and mistreatment.
