Metastatic involvement of brain is rare in neuroblastoma (NB). We retrospectively evaluated conventional and advanced imaging and clinical findings of seven patients with secondary intra-axial brain NB metastases. Magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography examinations of patients with metastatic brain NB were reviewed. Recent iodine-123 metaiodobenzylguanidine ((123)I-MIBG) scans were also reviewed. A medical record review was performed for relevant clinical, laboratory, histopathologic, and genetic data. Mean age at the time of primary tumor diagnosis was 35 months, and all were considered high-risk NB at diagnosis. Mean time interval between diagnosis and brain involvement was 23.2 months. Extensive prior extra-central nervous system (CNS) disease was present in all patients, but concomitant extra-CNS disease at the time of brain involvement was absent in three (43%) patients. Various forms of disease, including intraparenchymal, intraventricular, and leptomeningeal lesions were detected. Most intraparenchymal lesions were supratentorial and hemorrhagic; however, hemorrhage was absent in multiple leptomeningeal nodules in one patient. Contrast enhancement of lesions was present on all contrast-enhanced studies. Restricted diffusion of lesions was present in two patients. Arterial spin labeling (ASL) perfusion in two patients also revealed increased cerebral blood flow. Recent (123)I-MIBG scans were available in four patients and showed lesions in two patients with larger metastases but failed to demonstrate lesions in another two patients with smaller lesions. Brain metastases of NB are often supratentorial and hemorrhagic and demonstrate contrast enhancement. Diffusion-weighted imaging can show restricted diffusion. ASL images may reveal increased perfusion. MIBG scans may not show smaller brain metastases.
