Schwannomas are benign tumors derived from glial cells of peripheral nerve sheaths. They usually occur in association with Von Recklinghausen's disease and most commonly are observed on the head, neck, and upper extremities. Rare morphological variants may be misinterpreted as a malignancy under microscopic examination. The study presented a case of a sporadic "ancient" Schwannoma cell tumor located in the retroperitoneum. Literature data concerning diagnosis and treatment of the above-mentioned pathology was also reviewed.
施万细胞瘤是起源于周围神经鞘胶质细胞的良性肿瘤。它们通常与冯·雷克林豪森病相关，最常见于头部、颈部和上肢。罕见的形态学变异在显微镜检查下可能被误诊为恶性肿瘤。该研究报告了一例位于腹膜后的散发性“古老型”施万细胞瘤病例。同时也回顾了有关上述病理诊断和治疗的文献资料。
