Advantage of laparoscopic resection for pelvic Schwannoma: Case report and review of the literature

Despite it could not be proven yet, due to the rarity of this tumor, we agree with literature that laparoscopic removal of pelvic benign tumor may offer several advantages. The direct high-definition vision deeply into this narrow anatomical space, especially in obese patients, provides a detailed view that makes easier to isolate and spear the anatomical structures surrounding the tumor. Furthermore, the pneumoperitoneum may create the right plane of dissection, minimizing the risk of tumor rupture and bleeding.
