Popis: Schwannomas are benign neoplasms that arise from peripheral nerve sheaths. Typically found in peripheral nerves of the head, neck, and extremities, these tumors seldom arise in the retroperitoneum. We report the case of a 50-year-old male with a 5 cm right adrenal mass removed via robotic-assisted laparoscopic approach due to concerns for adrenocortical carcinoma, which surgical pathology revealed to be a rare adrenal schwannoma. This is the reported case.
