Abstract

Schwannoma of the intrathoracic phrenic nerve is a rare presentation. Routine chest X-ray examination of a 43-yearold asymptomatic man revealed a smooth, round, abnormal shadow in the right hilum adjacent to the heart. Computed tomography showed a regular mass in the right cardiophrenic junction, measuring 7x5x5 cm. On exploratory right thoracotomy, there was a firm mass involving the right phrenic nerve at the level of the cardiophrenic junction. The mass was peeled off along the phrenic nerve from the pericardium. Histopathology showed a benign schwannoma originating from the right phrenic nerve. Temporary mild right diaphragmatic eventration occurred after the operation but there was no respiratory distress. The patient’s respiratory function returned to normal nine months after the operation.

Özet

İntratorasik frenik sinir kökenli schwannomalar çok nadirdir. Kırk üç yaşındaki asemptomatik erkek hastanın rutin akciğer grafisinde, kalp komşuluğunda, sağ hilusta, yuvarlak gölge veren bir lezyon saptandı. Bilgisayarlı tomografide, sağ kardiyofrenik bileşkede, 7x5x5 cm boyutlarında düzenli bir kitle görüldü. Sağ torakotomi ile yapılan eksplorasyonda, kardiyofrenik bileşke düzeyinde sağ frenik siniri tutan sert bir kitleye rastlandı. Tümoral kitle sağ frenik sinirden sıyrılarak çıkarıldı. Histopatolojik tanı sağ frenik sinir kaynaklı benign schwannoma olarak bildirildi. Ameliyat sonrası dönemde solunum bozukluğuna neden olmayan, orta dereceli diyafragma evantrasyonu gözlendi. Hastanın solunum fonksiyonları ameliyattan dokuz ay sonra normale döndü.
