Ganglioneuromas are rare benign neoplasms arising from neural crest tissue. They are a subtype of neurogenic tumors with ganglion cell origin. They are most commonly found in the retroperitoneum and posterior mediastinum. Most ganglioneuromas are found incidentally; most patients are asymptomatic, and it rarely causes symptoms, which are often induced by compression. Here we present a case of a 24-year-old lady, who was investigated for right lower abdominal pain and found to have a right retroperitoneal solid mass at the level of L5-S1, which was displacing the major vessels. The patient underwent open excision of the mass.
神经节神经瘤是起源于神经嵴组织的罕见良性肿瘤。它们是具有神经节细胞起源的神经源性肿瘤的一种亚型。最常见于腹膜后和后纵隔。大多数神经节神经瘤是偶然发现的；大多数患者无症状，很少引起症状，症状通常由压迫引起。在此，我们报告一例24岁女性病例，该患者因右下腹痛接受检查，发现L5-S1水平右侧腹膜后有一实性肿块，该肿块使主要血管移位。患者接受了肿块的开放切除术。
