“…In recent years, endoscopic or robotic minimally invasive surgery is also being employed for the management of retroperitoneal schwannomas, with an acceptable rate of surgical complications [17–19]. Ji et al reported complication rates of 12.5% with laparoscopic resection of retroperitoneal schwannomas [18], while Liu et al reported complication rates of 12% with robotic resections of benign retroperitoneal tumors, including schwannomas [19].…”

The natural history of asymptomatic retroperitoneal schwannomas is poorly understood. This study aimed at investigating the natural history of incidental retroperitoneal schwannomas. The medical charts and imaging studies of 22 asymptomatic patients under observation for at least 12 months for retroperitoneal schwannomas were reviewed. The duration of follow-up ranged between 13 and 176 months (mean 48 months). In the 22 patients managed by the “wait and see” approach, the average tumor size at initial presentation was 51 mm, which increased to 57 mm at final follow-up. During the final follow-up, 2 patients required surgical treatment for tumor enlargement, while the remaining patients remained asymptomatic without surgery. The average growth rate of the tumors was 1.9 mm/year (range: -1.9 to 8.7 mm/year). The majority of asymptomatic retroperitoneal schwannomas demonstrate minimal growth and may be suitable for management with the “wait and see” approach.

Reporte de caso RESUMEN Se presenta un paciente con Schwannoma ancient retroperitoneal, intervenido quirúrgicamente por los autores. Se analizan aspectos de Schwannomas y las características particulares de los Schwannoma ancient. Se analiza la posibilidad de relacionarse con la enfermedad de von Recklinghausen, así como las posibilidades quirúrgicas, haciendo hincapié en la resección completa. Se analiza la escasa frecuencia de este tumor en el retroperitoneo.

“…The etiology of schwannomas remain unclear. [ 6 – 8 ] Schwannoma can affect any nerve trunk or any organ, but it occurs predominantly in the upper extremities. Less than 9% of schwannomas found in the mediastinum, but this tumor is the most common neurogenic tumor of the lower posterior mediastinum.…”

Introduction: Neurogenic tumors are the most frequent neoplasms of the lower posterior mediastinum. Traditionally, lower posterior mediastinal tumors are excised by video-assisted thoracic surgery. However, the available robotic treatment for the lower posterior mediastinum tumors to date are rare. Herein, we report a case of a right lower posterior mediastinal tumors successfully treated with retroperitoneal robot-assisted surgery using a transdiaphragmatic approach. Patient concerns: A 54-year-old male patient without any symptoms was admitted into our department with a right lower posterior mediastinal paravertebral tumor that was detected during a medical check-up. Diagnosis: A right lower posterior mediastinal paravertebral tumor. Interventions: Retroperitoneal robot-assisted resection using a transdiaphragmatic approach was performed. Outcomes: The patient was treated with retroperitoneal robot-assisted surgery using a transdiaphragmatic approach and remained disease-free throughout a 6-month follow-up. His postoperative course was uneventful. Histopathological examination revealed a benign schwannoma. Conclusion: Our initial experience showed that retroperitoneal robot-assisted resection of a lower posterior mediastinal tumor using a transdiaphragmatic approach is technically feasible and can be considered a potential alternative for either video-assisted thoracic surgery or a thoracotomy.
