Abstract
|
|
|
|
An intrathoracic schwannoma is a benign neurogenic tumor that arises from the posterior mediastinum and is commonly found to be solitary. Schwannomatosis that manifests as multiple cysts is extremely rare. In this case study, we report a rare case of a 36-year-old man with no respiratory symptoms, with multiple cystic tumors in the posterior chest wall and pathologically confirmed schwannomatosis with cystic degeneration arising from a single intercostal nerve.
