Schwannomas arising from vagus nerve sheath are rare mediastinal neurogenic tumours. Schwannomas usually arise from left hemithorax. Unlike a hamartoma, radiologically, calcification is rarely seen in schwannomas. We present the rare case of an ancient schwannoma arising from vagus nerve sheath from the right hemithorax presenting with gross calcification.
起源于迷走神经鞘膜的神经鞘瘤是罕见的纵隔神经源性肿瘤。神经鞘瘤通常起源于左半胸。与错构瘤不同,在影像学上,神经鞘瘤很少见钙化。我们报告了一例罕见的起源于右半胸迷走神经鞘膜的陈旧性神经鞘瘤,伴有明显钙化。
