[Mature retroperitoneal ganglioneuroma in the adult. A case]
Journal D'Urologie
|January 1, 1985
Abstract:
Mature ganglioneuroma, a benign nervous tumor of sympathetic origin, is an uncommon diagnosis in adults, particularly when it is located in the retroperitoneal region. Embryology provides an explanation for detection of this tumor in the adrenal glands. The fortuitous discovery of a lesion of this type in a patient with a homolateral renal adenocarcinoma provoked diagnostic and therapeutic problems that are discussed and analyzed.
