Summary:  We report a 45-year-old Japanese male with seminal vesicle tumor resected by robotic surgery. Histopathological examination of the tumor revealed a benign schwannoma. This patient was discharged after three days, and there were no complications such as hydronephrosis or sexual dysfunction. In this case, robot-assisted surgery provided safe and minimally-invasive treatment for the seminal vesicle schwannoma.
