Abstract

We report a case of schwannoma arising from brachial plexus with intrathoracic extension. An 18-year-old man demonstrated a tumor shadow at the right pulmonary apex area. In the 2-months of follow-up, tumor size had been growing rapidly. Chest computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a giant tumor mass infiltrated right lung. We perfomed operation under the posterolateral incision approach. The pathological diagnosis was schwannoma. We resected this tumor safely and conserved with the seventh, eighth cervical nerve of the brachial plexus under posterolateral incision approach.

摘要

我们报告一例起源于臂丛神经并向胸腔内延伸的神经鞘瘤。一名18岁男性在右肺尖区域显示出肿瘤阴影。在2个月的随访中，肿瘤大小迅速增长。胸部计算机断层扫描（CT）和磁共振成像（MRI）显示一个巨大的肿瘤肿块浸润右肺。我们采用后外侧切口入路进行手术。病理诊断为神经鞘瘤。我们在后外侧切口入路下安全地切除了该肿瘤，并保留了臂丛神经的颈7、颈8神经。
