Popis: | Schwannoma is a tumor arising from peripheral nerve sheath, found very rarely in the retroperitoneal part of the pelvis. It can reach large proportions before causing symptoms due to mass effect and is mostly diagnosed incidentaly. We describe a pelvic retroperitoneal Schwannoma in a 67-year-old man presented with progressive pain in lower left abdominal quadrant with digestive discomforts, which lasted for three months. Patohistological examination after complete surgical excision revealed a Schwannoma. Schwannom je tumor koji potječe iz ovojnice perifernog živca. Retroperitonealni Schwanom smješten u zdjelici je izuzetno rijedak. Doseže velike dimenzije prije uzrokovanja simptoma zbog čega se obično slučajno dijagnosticira. Opisan je prikaz slučaja retroperitonealnog Schwannoma zdjelice u 67-godišnjeg muškarca s progresivnim bolovima u donjem lijevom kvadrantu abdomena i probavnim smetnjama, u trajanju od tri mjeseca. Kirurški je tumor potpuno odstranjen i patohistološka dijagnoza je Schwannom. |
