While bathing her 1-year-old baby, a mother notices that the boy's abdomen seems larger than normal. The baby has not been feeding well lately, and is below the expected weight for his age. She takes the infant to the family physician who palpates a mass lesion in the abdominal region. A CT scan reveals a 5 cm mass in the left retroperitoneum adjacent to the kidney and displacing the kidney. The most probable diagnosis is:
A Congenital adrenal hyperplasia
B Adrenal adenoma
C Pheochromocytoma
D Adrenal cortical carcinoma
E Neuroblastoma
