Nerve-Preserving Endoscopically Assisted Resection of Schwannoma of the Radial Nerve

Schwannomas are the most common peripheral nerve tumors; they can present as painful masses or paresthesia. The aim of surgical treatment of a symptomatic schwannoma is total to gross total excision of the tumor along with preservation of the affected nerve and its function, particularly in patients...

description Schwannomas are the most common peripheral nerve tumors; they can present as painful masses or paresthesia. The aim of surgical treatment of a symptomatic schwannoma is total to gross total excision of the tumor along with preservation of the affected nerve and its function, particularly in patients with conserved functionality of a major nerve trunk. This Technical Note describes the technical details of nerve-preserving endoscopically assisted resection of a schwannoma of the radial nerve. This is an intracapsular resection of the tumor, and the risk of nerve injury is minimized.
