The early biological response has been proved an excellent predictor in acute lymphoblastic leukemia and nephroblastoma. We asked whether catecholamine metabolites, mIBG scan, and bone marrow evaluation might be relevant response markers in disseminated neuroblastoma. Procedure. Three hundred sixty-seven unselected stage 4 neuroblastoma patients treated according the German cooperative trial NB90 were entered into the study. Catecholamine plasma and urine levels were centrally determined by gas chromatography/ mass spectrometry. Bone marrow cytology and mIBG scans were evaluated by local investigators. Results. Ar diagnosis, mIBG scan was positive in 306 patients (92%), borderline in seven patients (2%), and negative in 19 patients (6%). Bone marrow aspirates were cytologically positive in 292 patients (84%) and negative in 57 patients (16%). Plasma catecholamine levels were elevated in 79% (206 of 260 patients.), urinary levers in 92% (307 of 338 patients). The outcome of patients with normalized mIBG scan after four courses of chemotherapy [5 year EFS (event free survival) 0.22 +/- 0.071 was not superior to the outcome of patients with still abnormal uptake (5 year EFS 0.30 +/- 0.05). The event free survival of patients with still positive bone marrow aspirates after four courses (0.16 +/- 0.06) was inferior to the EFS of patients with negative bone marrow aspirates (0.26 +/- 0.04, P = 0.0054). Urinary catecholamine normalization after four cycles of chemotherapy (5 year EFS 0.35 +/- 0.06 Versus 0.26 +/- 0.10) had no influence on outcome, whereas plasma catecholamine normalization after the first (5 year EFS 0.40 +/- 0.09 versus 0.14 +/- 0.07, P = 0.0364) or the fourth cycle (5 year EFS 0.35 +/- 0.06 versus 0.26 +/- 0.10, P = 0.0242) indicated a better outcome. Conclusions. These data show that serial plasma catecholamine levels and bone marrow aspirates in the course of the disease are useful toots in predicting outcome. Med. Pediatr.

NSE was the best, being able to detect 42% of the localised relapses. 77% of the combined local/metastatic relapses, and 69% of the metastatic recurrences. Relapse or progression in neuroblastoma cannot be detected reliably by monitoring tumour markers alone.

We report on a patient manifesting acute encephalopathy, epilepsy, microcephaly and megaloblastic anaemia at the age of 4 months. Vitamin B-12 deficiency in the patient was due to subclinical pernicious anaemia of the mother who exhibited neither haematological nor neurological symptoms. Mother and child both had elevated methylmalonic acid in their urine which is a sensitive parameter of vitamin B-12 deficiency. Vitamin B-12 therapy resulted in arrest of convulsions within 24 h. There were no further seizures although the patient showed moderate mental retardation at the age of 7 years but a normal head circumference. Long-term MRI follow-up, performed at the age of 7 years, showed moderate enlargement of the ventricles with reduction of myelin and hypoplasia of the corpus callosum. Conclusion:vitamin B-12 deficiency due to maternal pernicious anaemia should always be considered in the differential diagnosis of neurological symptoms in infants and especially in combination with megaloblastic anaemia.
