Presacral ganglioneuromas are extremely rare benign tumors and fewer than 20 cases have been reported in the literature. Ganglioneuromas are difficult to be differentiated preoperatively from tumors such as schwannomas, meningiomas, and neurofibromas with imaging modalities. The retroperitoneal approach for resection of presacral ganglioneuroma was performed for gross total resection of the tumor. Recurrence and malignant transformation of these tumors is rare. Adjuvant chemotherapy or radiation therapy is not indicated because of their benign nature. We report a case of a 47-year-old woman with a presacral ganglioneuroma.
骶前神经节神经瘤是极其罕见的良性肿瘤，文献报道的病例不足20例。神经节神经瘤在术前通过影像学检查很难与施万瘤、脑膜瘤和神经纤维瘤等肿瘤相鉴别。采用腹膜后入路切除骶前神经节神经瘤，以实现肿瘤的全切除。这些肿瘤很少复发和恶变。由于其良性性质，不建议进行辅助化疗或放疗。我们报告一例47岁患有骶前神经节神经瘤的女性病例。
