Résumé
Ganglioneuromas are benign tumors arising from the neural crest. Histologically, they are composed of mature Schwann cells and ganglion cells admixed with fibrous tissue. While they frequently are seen in the abdomen and mediastinum, rare reports have highlighted their occurrences in the genitourinary system. The only prior reported prostatic ganglioneuroma arose in a patient with a history of neurofibromatosis type 1. In this report, we highlight the first reported prostatic ganglioneuroma without a known genetic linkage.
