Schwannomas rarely occur in seminal vesicles. Here, we report a schwannoma of the left seminal vesicle. A 55-year-old man presented no clinical symptoms, and a mass in the left region of the seminal vesicle was found incidentally in a medical examination. A computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging of pelvic were obtained and revealed a 5.17 × 2.59 × 3.5 cm mass on the left seminal vesicle. Transrectal ultrasound-guided seminal biopsy revealed a diagnosis of seminal vesical schwannoma. Laparoscopic resection of the tumour was performed. Postoperative pathology and immunohistochemical analysis revealed schwannoma arising from seminal vesical.
Keywords: laparoscopic surgery; schwannoma; seminal vesicle.
