Minimally invasive surgery has become widely adopted in various types of surgery and is associated with faster postoperative recovery. Similar benefits may apply to pediatric patients, in whom enhanced recovery can facilitate timely initiation or resumption of systemic therapy which is an important component of multimodality treatment. We report the case of a 2-year-old child with neuroblastoma of the left adrenal gland who underwent robotic adrenalectomy. This case suggests that a robotic approach may be feasible in carefully selected pediatric patients and can be performed safely under appropriate expertise.
