Abstract

Schwannomas are solitary, capsulated and asymptomatic lesions that originate from nerve sheath or schwann cells. Although intrathoracic lesions are mostly located in mediastinum, they rarely originate from intercostal nerves. We report a case of schwannoma arising from an intercostal nerve in 26-year-old man, with back pain and undergoing resection in the chest wall. The pain relieved after surgical treatment.

Özet

Schwannomalar sinir kılıfından veya Schwann hücrelerinden köken alan sıklıkla soliter, kapsüle, asemptomatik lezyonlardır. Toraks içindeki lezyonların büyük çoğunluğu mediastinum içinde yer alırken nadir olarak interkostal sinirden kaynaklanır. Bu yazıda sırt ağrısıyla başvuran, interkostal schwannoma nedeniyle rezeksiyon uygulanan ve cerrahi tedavi sonrası ağrı şikayeti gerileyen 26 yaşında bir erkek olgu sunuldu.
