Abstract
One of the typical presentations of neuroblastoma is intractable diarrhea or wdha (watery diarrhea, hypokalemia, achloridria). The case admitted to our Pediatric Surgery Department presented watery diarrhea due to VIP hyperincretion caused by a stage 1 neuroblastoma, whose ablation allowed a complete resolution of the clinical conditions. This case report can be useful in the discussion of the differential diagnosis of the most common clinical pictures.
