Core Tip	This study evaluates the efficacy of tandem autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in improving survival outcomes for pediatric patients with high-risk solid tumors, including neuroblastoma. The results demonstrate that tandem ASCT provides encouraging 5-year overall survival and event-free survival rates, with manageable toxicity and no transplant-related mortality. Key prognostic factors, such as age and lactate dehydrogenase levels at diagnosis, were identified. This study highlights the potential of tandem ASCT as a feasible therapeutic option for high-risk pediatric solid tumors, paving the way for further optimizing treatment strategies.
