Primary tracheal schwannoma resected in a Turner syndrome patient: a case report

We report a case of primary tracheal schwannoma in a 31-year-old woman. She had a previous history of follicular thyroid carcinoma treated surgically and Turner syndrome. In a follow-up computed tomography scan, we found a partially obstructing intraluminal tracheal tumor, which was confirmed by bro...

description We report a case of primary tracheal schwannoma in a 31-year-old woman. She had a previous history of follicular thyroid carcinoma treated surgically and Turner syndrome. In a follow-up computed tomography scan, we found a partially obstructing intraluminal tracheal tumor, which was confirmed by bronchoscopy. The patient was treated by surgical resection and primary tracheal anastomosis. The tumor was 14 mm in diameter, with an intact capsule. Histologic analysis revealed a Schwann cell origin tumor.
