A 1-year-3-month old girl presented with ganglioneuroblastoma originating in the neck. On examination, several elastic masses measuring from walnut-size to little-finger-tip-size were palpated in the right side of the neck. They were at first suspected to be cervical lymphadenitis, but showed no response to administration of antibiotics. The biopsy revealed that the neck tumor was histlogically ganglioneuroblastoma. The searches by body CT, intravenous pyelography, echogram and Ga scintigram demonstrated no sign of tumor in any other organ or tissue, which strongly suggested that the tumor was a cervical origin. All tumor masses were removed by modified neck dissection and the patient has received chemotherapy (James procedure) and irradiation. She is free from disease at 3 months after operation. This is the second case of cervical neuroblastoma among 41 cases of this disease expetienced in our department since 1960. In this paper, a literal review is included.
