| Abstract: | We report the case of a neonate presenting with the clinical features of blueberry muffin syndrome caused by ganglioneuroblastoma, a rare variant of neuroblastoma. This syndrome may be the only visible manifestation of a neonatal tumor and highlights the importance of early recognition and initiation of therapy to reduce mortality. |
