Robotic assisted laparoscopic excision of a renal schwannoma from a community hospital: A case report

摘要

Renal schwannomas are an extremely rare renal tumor with possibility for malignant conversion. Although reports are scant, most reports have been presented from academic institutions. We report on a case of a renal schwannoma that was removed via robotic assisted laparoscopic nephrectomy in a community-based specialty practice under the suspicion of a renal malignancy.
