Abstract
|
|
|
The presense of multiple neurilemmomas in one patient is usually indicative of neurofibromatosis II. However, several recent reports have suggested that schwannomatosis itself may also be a distinct clinical entity. We experienced
recently a case of 58-year-old man who had unilateral vocal cord palarysis with chest mass verified as neurilemmoma. After 3 months later, tougue deviation was developed and MRI finding shows mass on jubular bulb. Surgical resection was done and mass was verified as neurilemmoma also. The case represents an extremely rare case of multiple neurilemmoma associated with intracranial and extracranial involvement.
