Ganglioneuroma is an uncommon benign tumor that arises from the sympathetic nervous system accounting for less than 1% of all soft-tissue neoplasms.
We report the case of a 22 year-old man who presented a ganglioneuroma localized in the zygoma.
Ganglioneuroma generally develop in the abdomen or thorax soft tissue. The occurrence of ganglioneuroma in the bone is exceptional. To date less than ten cases have been reported, six of which involved the mandible. We discuss the possible causes of tumor development at this site.
神经节细胞瘤是一种罕见的良性肿瘤,起源于交感神经系统,占所有软组织肿瘤的比例不到1%。
我们报告一例22岁男性,其神经节细胞瘤位于颧骨。
神经节细胞瘤通常发生于腹部或胸部软组织。发生在骨骼中的神经节细胞瘤很罕见。迄今为止,报告的病例不到10例,其中6例累及下颌骨。我们讨论了该部位肿瘤发生的可能原因。
