Abstract
Background: Renal ganglioneuroma is an extremely rare benign tumour that affects neural crest cells. Here we report a case of renal ganglioneuroma with nodal metastasis managed by surgical resection. Case report: A 38-year-old female presented with anorexia and early satiety. On examination, she had a palpable mass per abdomen. CT scan revealed a large heterogenous mass in retroperitoneum in right suprarenal region with enlarged retrocrural lymph nodes. She underwent right radical nephrectomy as the mass was inseparable from the right kidney. Postoperative period was uneventful. HPE revealed renal ganglioneuroma. Conclusion: Primary renal ganglioneuroma is difficrult to differentiate from other etroperitoneal lesions. Surgical resection is the most effective treatment.
