Presacral ganglioneuromas are so rare benign tumors that only 17 cases have been reported in the literature. They are abdominal masses growing slowly and differential diagnoses have to be considered. Surgical resection is important for definitive diagnosis because it represents the only therapeutic choice. Because of the benign nature of ganglioneuroma, adjuvant chemo- or radiotherapy is not indicated but regular follow-up is necessary for an early diagnosis of potential local recurrence. We report a case of a 64-year-old man with a presacral ganglioneuroma.
骶前神经节神经瘤是极为罕见的良性肿瘤，文献中仅报道过17例。它们是生长缓慢的腹部肿块，必须考虑进行鉴别诊断。手术切除对于明确诊断很重要，因为这是唯一的治疗选择。由于神经节神经瘤的良性性质，无需进行辅助化疗或放疗，但需要定期随访以便早期诊断潜在的局部复发。我们报告一例64岁男性患有骶前神经节神经瘤的病例。
