Abstract
Ovarian metastasis of childhood tumors is rare despite their aggressive nature. The childhood tumor that spreads to the ovary most frequently is the neuroblastoma. The clinical features and frequent bilaterality of ovarian metastatic tumors are helpful diagnostic features in many cases, but when the ovarian tumor is the presenting manifestation of the disease, differentiation from various primary ovarian tumors may be difficult. In this paper, a rare case of metastatic ovarian neuroblastoma is reported.
