摘要
Penile schwannoma is an uncommonly seen peripheral nerve tumor, of which penile plexiform schwannomas (PS) is extremely rare that has only been reported in several adults. We present a case of penile PS with a similar lesion in inguinal region in a 9-year-old child, which appeared as painless masses and rapidly growing within one year. Penile ultrasonography suggested well-defined lesions with limited vascularity. Both masses presented with low-to-intermediated signal intensity and no definite enhancement in computed tomography. The lesions were completely resected with minimal intraoperative bleeding, and a diagnose of benign PS was confirmed based on H&E staining and positive S-100 expression in immunohistochemistry. There was no evidence of tumor recurrence or metastasis after 6 months of follow-up. Only 6 cases of penile schwannoma in children were recorded, of which 5 were malignant, and none was PS. The malignancy rate of penile schwannoma in children may be overestimated due to delayed diagnose of benign ones. A rapidly growing penile mass with a suspected metastatic lesion in inguinal region could be easily misdiagnosed as malignant. This case report and literature review is expected to assist clinicians in getting a comprehensive understanding of children penile schwannomas and choosing the best management strategy when faced with this rare condition.
