Melanotic neuro-ectodermal tumour of infancy.

A rare case of melanotic neuro-ectodermal tumour of infancy is presented. A 5-month-old child presented with rapidly progressing large swelling that almost filled up the opening of oral cavity. The vanillyl mandelic acid level was increased in the 24-hour urine sample of the child. Surgical excision was done and recovery was uneventful.
