Computed tomography was performed in a patient with a median nerve tumor at the arm, histologically confirmed as neurilemmoma. Neurilemmoma was a slightly hypodense, solid tumor with no vascular contrast enhancement. To our knowledge this is the first CT description of a median nerve neurilemmoma at the arm. According to our experience and to previous literature, CT gives useful information regarding extent, anatomic location, size and relationship of peripheral nerve neoplasm to surrounding structures and may be an useful tool for evaluation arm nerve mass and for appropriate planning of surgical therapy.
对一名手臂患有正中神经肿瘤的患者进行了计算机断层扫描，组织学检查确诊为神经鞘瘤。神经鞘瘤是一种密度略低的实性肿瘤，无血管造影增强。据我们所知，这是对手臂正中神经神经鞘瘤的首次CT描述。根据我们的经验和以往文献，CT可提供有关周围神经肿瘤的范围、解剖位置、大小以及与周围结构关系的有用信息，可能是评估手臂神经肿块和合理规划手术治疗的有用工具。
