title: Primary paratesticular ganglioneuroma: a rare case in an adult.
abstract: Ganglioneuroma is a benign tumor, affecting the central nervous system, commonly     seen in children and young adults. Non-cranial ganglioneuromas are seen     predominantly in the posterior mediastinum and retroperitoneum. Paratesticular     neoplasms are extremely rare and are susceptible to clinical misinterpretation     as malignancy. Tumors of nerve origin are a rarity in the paratesticular region,     with a few cases of schwannoma and malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor being     reviewed in the literature. A rare case of ganglioneuroma involving the     paratesticular region in an adult is presented.
