Laparoscopic resection of schwannoma in the anomaly of obturator nerve.
Most retroperitoneal schwannomas are benign tumors originating from schwann cells and are relatively rare, especially schwannomas arising in the obturator nerve. In this paper, we describe a 44-year-old woman with a retroperitoneal schwannoma in the anomaly of the obturator nerve, which was treated by laparoscopy without any complications.
