Abstract :

Schwannomas are benign encapsulated nerve sheath neoplasms accounts for approximately 5% of all benign soft tissue tumors. Schwannomas are slowly enlarging, painless masses. Though neurologic findings are absent, because of mass effect, schwannoma may mimic other disease processes in head and neck and differential diagnosis may be difficult. The diagnosis is based on clinical suspicion, confirmed by imaging and histo–pathological evaluation. The treatment is complete surgical excision. Here we report a case of left sided neck Schwannoma.
