Massive vagal schwannoma in an 11‐year‐old girl

We describe an unusual case of a young girl presenting with a large vagal schwannoma necessitating a transcervical‐mandibulotomy approach for total tumor resection. The presentation is unique due to the size of the lesion, the patient’s age, the operative approach, and molecular pathology.
