Retroperitoneal Schwannoma: Two Rare Case Reports.

Schwannomas are neuroectodermal tumors that rarely occur in the retroperitoneal space. We report two cases of patients who presented with abdominal pain. Radiological findings revealed a retroperitoneal mass in both cases. Both patients underwent complete surgical excision with an uneventful postoperative course. The histopathological study confirmed the nature of schwannoma. Complete surgical excision remains the gold standard for the management of these tumors. The preoperative diagnosis is usually difficult; however, the definitive diagnosis is made upon histopathological examination.
