The occurrence of so-called primary retroperitoneal tumors is very rare, and among these tumors, retroperitoneal neurinoma (neurilemmoma, schwannoma, etc.) is seldom encountered. Although neurinoma develops in any portion of the whole body where the nervous system is present, approximately half of this neoplasm locates in the facial and cervical regions. One hundred and seventeen cases of primary retroperitoneal neurinoma in the Japanese literature including our own case were reviewed. As a rule, eighty to ninety per cent of the retroperitoneal tumors have malignant tendencies, whereas the majority of retroperitoneal neurinoma showed benign histology (the ratio of the benign to the malignant was 2.8 : 1). Several characteristic differences between the benign and the malignant retroperitoneal neurinoma were discussed. Complete surgical removal is the only effective choice of the treatments. In order to prevent recurrence of the tumor, thorough extirpation as much as possible is necessary.
