A case of retroperitoneal ganglioneuroma.
We describe a rare case of a primary retroperitoneal ganglioneuroma that was found accidentally during preoperative examinations conducted due to a suspicion of ovarian cancer. Computerized tomography was not able to differentiate the retroperitoneal mass from an adrenal tumor. We diagnosed the retroperitoneal tumor by means of selective adrenal angiography.
