Abstract
Neuroblastoma presenting as obstructive jaundice due to compression of the extrahepatic bile duct is very rare. An 11-month-old girl had sudden onset of jaundice. Initial imaging suggested a dilated biliary system caused by hepatic hilum mass. 18 F-FDG PET/CT showed a lesion with increased 18 F-FDG accumulation associated with surrounding enlarged lymph nodes. Surgical pathology confirmed the diagnosis of a poorly differentiated neuroblastoma associated with multiple lymph node metastases.
