Laparoscopic Excision of Functional Ganglioneuroma Near Renal Hilum

Abstract

Ganglioneuromas are one of the frequent retroperitoneal tumors arising from extraadrenal sympathetic ganglia or chromaffin tissue. The commonest extraadrenal site is periadrenal region near renal hilum. We present a case of ganglioneuroma in a narrow quadrangular space near right renal hilum, treated laparoscopically.
