NSE is the [gamma] isoform of the glycolytic enzyme enolase, which is highly concentrated within the brain and cells of neuroendocrine origin (2).
Postnatal diagnosis of cystic neuroblastoma requires laboratory tests to determine neuron-specific enolase, catecholamines in 24-h urine, and MRI of the abdomen (4).
They are positive for synaptophysin, chromogranin, and neuron-specific enolase (1, 2, 11).
Neurone-specific enolase, chromogranin, CD56, immunoperoxidase, synaptophysin, epithelial membrane antigen, calcitonin, and bombesin stains may be useful to establish the diagnosis.12

Levels of neuron-specific enolase and [alpha]-fetoprotein were both elevated, at 24.7 ng/ml (normal range (NR) < 16.3 ng/ml) and 56 ng/ml (NR < 10 ng/ml), respectively.
