Abstract

Schwannoma is a benign tumour arising from neurilemmal cells and is commonly seen along cranial nerves. We describe the case history and histologic findings of a young adult with a schwannoma at a very rare site: the penis. Surgical excision was done and the patient remains disease-free after 2 years.
