Overview
An elevated levels of blood and urinary catecholamines, vanillylmandelic acid (VMA), and homovanillic acid (HVA) are suggestive of neuroblastoma.
Laboratory Findings
Blood Tests[1][2]
- Reduced hemoglobin level
- Elevated ferritin level
- Elevated catecholamine levels
- Elevated dopamine level
- Elevated vanillylmandelic acid (VMA) level
- Elevated homovanillic acid (HVA) level
- Elevated lactate dehydrogenase level (>1500 U/ml)
- Elevated neuron-specific enolase level (>100 ng/ml)
Urinalysis[1][3][2]
- Elevated catecholamine levels
- Elevated vanillylmandelic acid (VMA) level
- Elevated homovanillic acid (HVA) level
