Abstract:

Primitive retroperitoneal tumors (PRT) are relatively rare, without having specific signs that will lead to their early recognition and can not be include in the therapeutic schemes. They are diagnosed late, when they have been abdominalized through volume, invading the intra-peritoneal organs. Therefore, we did not hesitate to identify the difficulties in the diagnosis of PRT, where much confusion persists today as everything depends on the precocity of diagnosis.
