Periprostatic schwannoma mimicking metastatic lymphadenopathy in a case of multifocal prostate adenocarcinoma.

Abstract

Schwannomas of the prostate are a rare entity and usually diagnosed incidentally following surgical management of presumed benign prostate hyperplasia or prostate adenocarcinoma. We present a case of sporadic periprostatic schwannoma diagnosed in conjunction with multifocal prostate adenocarcinoma on pre-operative multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging.
