Retroperitoneum is an uncommon site for Schwannoma tumors and among adrenal incidentaloma the Schwannoma is rare. This condition lacks of a specific clinical and radiological features, but correct diagnosis before pathological examination should be very important for clinical management and surgical decision. We describe a case of voluminous retroperitoneal incidental mass, that was proved to be an adrenal Schwannoma.

We introduce a 39-year-old man with an exceedingly large adrenal schwannoma who visited our outpatient department with epigastric pain and a palpable mass in the left upper abdomen. Abdominal computed tomography revealed a giant cystic lesion measuring >25 cm. Laparotomy was performed for tumor excision and partial nephrectomy.

Paragangliomas are slow-growing, extra-adrenal neuroendocrine tumors with rare intracranial presentation. Although benign, they can be locally aggressive tumors causing bone destruction and compression related symptoms. We report the case of a 19 years old, normotensive female who presented with headache and vertigo for the past six months.

Article Synopsis
- - Carney Complex (CNC) is a rare genetic syndrome causing spotty skin pigmentation and multiple tumors, including heart tumors (myxomas) and specific testicular tumors, and is usually inherited in an autosomal dominant manner.
- - A 30-year-old male patient with CNC experienced severe infertility issues connected to both oligoasthenozoospermia and a rare testicular tumor (LCCSCT), along with recurring cardiac myxomas.
- - Molecular testing revealed a novel gene mutation that may lead to male infertility in CNC patients; highlighting the need for early diagnosis and management of infertility in affected males.
