ABSTRACT
Schwannomas are uncommon benign, slowly growing tumors that originate in peripheral, cranial, or autonomic nerves and are composed of Schwann cells in a collagenous matrix. Retroperitoneum is often the site of occurrence of schwannoma, but report on schwannoma of the adrenal gland is rare. We report a case of adrenal schwannoma. A 53 male had facial edema and paresthesia of extremities for 3 month. Incidentally adrenal mass was found on abdominal computer tomogram and exploration performed.
