| Popis: | The aim of the article is to present a rare case of ancient variant of scrotal schwannoma in a 26-year old male with immunohistochemical confirmation. Scrotal schwannoma poses a diagnostic challenge to urologists. The "ancient" variant of schwannoma is a rare subtype of a benign encapsulated neoplasm of the nerve sheath. A review of current literature has revealed several reported sites but few in the scrotum. |
