Abstract

|
|
Schwannoma or neurilemmoma of anterior chest wall is exceedingly rare. We describe a very rare case of schwannoma of the anterior chest wall, which was mimicking a breast mass. A 52-year-old woman presented with an incidentally found mass on breast sonography. On sonography, the precise location of mass was not determined. Breast MRI revealed that this mass was located in anterior chest wall. Surgical excision revealed benign schwannoma.
