Resumen:
Schwannoma is a mesenchymal tumor that is mainly located in the peripheral nerves or the central nervous system. Its retroperitoneal location is rare and commonly asymptomatic. Thus, it is usually diagnosed when imaging tests are performed for other purposes. The clinical course of Schwannoma is benign but it also has malignant potential. Therefore, surgical resection is the treatment of choice. The definitive diagnosis is anatomopathological. In this context, we present a patient with retroperitoneal Schwannoma.
