[Schwannoma of the rectum. Clinico-therapeutic study].
On the basis of a case of rectal Schwannoma and a review of the literature on this rare condition, stress is laid on the clinical features, diagnostic difficulties and indicated surgical therapy approaches. The need for radical operation, because of the tendency of the form to recur locally and because of the real possibility of malignant degeneration in this event, is stressed. Emphasis is also laid on the problem of making a certainly benign diagnosis even histologically.
