[Retroperitoneal neurilemmona].
Schwannoma is an uncommon tumor arising from neural sheath of peripheral nerves. Histological findings showing Antoni A and B zones are the main diagnostic features. We report a new case of a retroperitoneal located one, which is not its most usual place to appear, in a 60 year old male, presenting left flank pain. He received surgical treatment, having a satisfactory evolution.
