Abstract

A 28-year-old male patient with a 93x84 mm pelvic mass suspected to be malignant in preoperative evaluation is presented. Complete removal of the lesion was achieved with aggressive surgery during exploration since the mass was found to be invasive to the bladder, left ureter and the left seminal vesicle. Histopathological and immunohistochemical examinations reve-aled the diagnosis as "ancient" schwannoma (neurilemmoma). Pelvic retroperitoneum is a very rare localization for benign schwannoma originating from peripheral nerve sheaths and the case is presented with relevant literature.

Özet

Kemik pelvisde yerleşim gösteren ve operasyon öncesi değerlendirmede malign özellikler içeren 93x84 mm boyutunda kitleye sahip 28 yaşında bir erkek hasta sunulmaktadır. Eksplorasyonda kitlenin mesane, sol üreter ve sol seminal veziküle invazyonu nedeniyle agresif cerrahi ile eksizyon gerekti. Histopatolojik ve immünhistokimyasal inceleme sonucu "ancient" schwannoma (nörilemmoma) tanısı kondu. Periferal sinir kılıflarından köken alan benign schwannomanm çok ender bir yerleşimi olan pelvik retroperitoneal bölgede izlendiği bu olgu literatür eşliğinde sunulmaktadır.
