We report a case of esophageal schwannoma in a 62-year-old woman with a 10-month history of dysphagia and dyspnea. Chest computed tomography showed a giant mediastinal mass with a maximum diameter of 9 cm, extrinsically compressing the trachea and esophagus. With a large esophageal mucosal defect and poor blood supply after removal of the tumor, we had to perform partial esophagectomy and esophagogastrostomy in the right thorax (Ivor-Lewis procedure). Pathologic and immunohistochemical examinations revealed a benign esophageal schwannoma.
我们报告一例62岁女性食管神经鞘瘤病例，该患者有10个月吞咽困难和呼吸困难病史。胸部计算机断层扫描显示一个最大直径为9厘米的巨大纵隔肿块，向外压迫气管和食管。由于肿瘤切除后食管黏膜缺损大且血供差，我们不得不进行右胸部分食管切除术和食管胃吻合术（艾弗-刘易斯手术）。病理和免疫组化检查显示为良性食管神经鞘瘤。
