Abstrakt:	Obturator schwannomas are rare and often misdiagnosed as intraperitoneal pelvic masses. The optimal surgical approach for their resection is unclear. This study presents a case demonstrating the safe use of robotics for resecting a benign pelvic schwannoma and reviews the literature on robotic cases. Here, a 40-year-old woman with right lower quadrant pain underwent imaging, revealing a 4.6 × 3.3 × 3.6 cm pelvic mass. She had a robotic-assisted laparoscopic excision, with pathology confirming a benign schwannoma. Complete tumor resection is the gold standard. The use of minimally invasive robotic-assisted surgery is increasing due to improved visualization, efficient movement, and safety, making it a viable option for resecting obturator schwannomas. Competing Interests: None declared. (Published by Oxford University Press and JSCR Publishing Ltd. © The Author(s) 2024.)
