Abstract

|
|
Benign schwannomas are generally slow growing and painless tumors originating from the Schwann cells of peripheral nerve sheaths. As they are well demarcated by a thick capsular lining and not growing invasively, local excision is considered the treatment of choice. Once completely excised, recurrence of benign schwannomas is not expected. Benign schwannomas developed in adrenal grand are not common, but some cases were reported by synonyms for that. Laparoscopy had been applied in numerous surgery. But, laparoscopic resection of adrenal benign schwanomas had been reported uncommonly. We diagnosed a case of nonfunctioning adrenal tumor preoperatively that was histologically confirmed as schwannoma. We can resect adrenal tumor by laparoscopic approach. Authers report this case with review of the recent literatures.
