Zusammenfassung:A 13‐year‐old girl presented with dull lumbar pain and recent paraplegia. Clinical examination found a breast mass associated with an axillary adenopathy. Imaging revealed a large mass in the posterior mediastinum with spinal cord compression. Histological analysis confirmed the diagnosis of neuroblastoma with mammary metastases. To the best of our knowledge, breast metastasis is being reported for the first time in a mediastinal neuroblastoma.
