Intra-scrotal schwannoma is a rare neoplasm and a few reports were describing this entity in the literature and mostly difficult to be diagnosed pre operatively(1) We recently treated a case of intra-scrotal extra-testicular schwannoma which was discovered in a patient with history of painless scrotal lesion for 5 years. paratesticular lesion excision was done which was result as schwannoma tissue. follow up with US scrotum was unremarkable for the patient. surgical excision will provide diagnostic and therapeutic goals. Even tough recurrence is rare a urologist should take care to ensure complete surgical resection.
