    Author: Pelton JJ, Ratner IA.
    Journal: J Pediatr Surg; 1990 May; 25(5):547-9. PubMed ID: 2352091.
    Abstract:
    The case of a 5-month-old girl with a large neuroblastoma of the thoracic inlet, an unusual location for this tumor, is presented. The patient had marked airway compromise due to tumor compression, with extension of the mass through the thoracic inlet into the base of the neck, also incorporating the right subclavian artery. The highly unusual location of this tumor is presented, and challenging technical aspects of its management are discussed.
