Parapharyngeal Schwannoma - A Rare Case Report
The incidence of schwannomas is 25-45% in the head and neck region but less than 0.5% when restricted to the parapharyngeal space. The clinical presentation of this lesion varies depending on the anatomical location of its occurrence and thus does the treatment modality. Present report is a case o...

description |
The incidence of schwannomas is 25-45% in the head and neck region but less than 0.5% when restricted to the parapharyngeal
space. The clinical presentation of this lesion varies depending on the anatomical location of its occurrence and thus does the
treatment modality. Present report is a case of a 20-year-old female who reported to the Department of Otorhinolaryngology with
swelling in the lateral part of the neck which was subsequently diagnosed as schwannoma and appropriate surgical excision was
done. Histopathology of the excision lesion confirmed the diagnosis. It becomes crucial to report and revise the tumours of the
parapharyngeal space because of the complexity of the area. |
