Acute left heart failure with pulmonary edema during resection of pediatric neuroblastoma: case report

The lesion was confirmed as neuroblastoma by postoperative tissue examination. Such tumors regularly synthesize and secrete catecholamines, warranting caution in advance of surgical manipulation.
