Neuroblastoma is a malignant tumor derived from the neuroblasts of the sympathetic nervous system, which develop in any region of the nervous system. Usually, neuroblastoma is detected in children aged 1–2 years. About 90% of cases are diagnosed before the age of 5 years. The incidence of adult neuroblastoma is only 0.3 cases per million people per year. The clinical course and biological activity of adult neuroblastoma is different than children neuroblastoma. Early diagnosis of this disease in adults is necessary for timely start of treatment and increasing life expectancy. In this clinical observation, we present a detailed description of the course of this rare disease in the 34-year-old male and literature review on adult neuroblastoma.

Dyskeratosis congenita (DC) is an uncommon disease characterized by nail dystrophy, cutaneous hyperpigmentation, leukoplakia, pancytopenia, and malignant transformation. There can be some oral and dental changes such as oral leukoplakia, increase in tooth decay, hypodontia, thinning of enamel layer, aggressive periodontitis, intraoral brown pigmentation, missing tooth, taurodontism, and blunted roots. Most of cases belong to dermatology or pediatrics department. There are few reports about dentistry. The aim of this report is to lay emphasis on this fatal syndrome among dentists about the multisystem findings and oro-dental changes. Thus, this information may aid dentists in early diagnosis.
