Giant sacral schwannomas (GSS) are extremely rare. Complete resection of benign but neurologically devastating tumors has been recommended. A 48-year-old man with GSS had a tumor so large that a total sacrectomy was necessary. A special method of lumbar iliac fixation was devised. Two years and nine months after surgery, the patient was free of pain and ambulating with bilateral orthoses.
巨大骶骨神经鞘瘤（GSS）极为罕见。建议对这类良性但会造成神经损害的肿瘤进行完整切除。一名患有GSS的48岁男性，其肿瘤巨大，以至于必须进行全骶骨切除术。为此设计了一种特殊的腰髂固定方法。术后两年零九个月，患者已无疼痛，借助双侧矫形器可行走。
