Area of Science:
- Oncology
- Surgical Pathology
Background:
- Retroperitoneal schwannomas are rare tumors.
- Preoperative diagnosis can be challenging.
Observation:
- A case of retroperitoneal neoplasm in a 29-year-old woman was analyzed.
- Clinical and therapeutic aspects were evaluated.
Findings:
- The anatomopathological study confirmed a benign schwannoma.
- This highlights the importance of histopathological examination.
Implications:
- Early recognition and surgical resection are crucial for managing retroperitoneal schwannomas.
- Further research into diagnostic modalities may improve preoperative identification.
