Schwannoma Mimicking Laryngocele
A schwannoma of the larynx is a rare benign tumor that usually presents as a submucosal mass in the pyriform sinus and the aryepiglottic space, and this type of schwannoma constitutes a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge for otolaryngologists. We present here two cases of supraglottic schwannomas that were misdiagnosed as laryngoceles. Both were excised through a lateral thyrotomy approach wi...
متن کاملMesenteric Microcystic/Reticular Schwannoma: A Diagnostic Dilemma
Microcystic/reticular schwannoma is a rare variant of schwannoma with a predilection for visceral locations including the gastrointestinal tract. Due to overlapping features with other tumours, unawareness of this tumour type may lead to diagnostic pitfalls. We here report a case of microcystic/reticular schwannoma arising in the mesentery of a 25-year-old female. The tumour was incidentally di...

In 2008, Liegl et al. described 10 cases of microcystic reticular schwannoma as a distinct variant with predilection for visceral sites [2]. Herein, we ...
متن کاملIntracanalicular meningioma mimicking vestibular schwannoma.
SUMMARY Three cases of intracanalicular meningioma mimicking vestibular schwannoma are presented. In each case, a contrast-enhancing mass filling the internal auditory canal was identified on MR images and was originally diagnosed as a vestibular schwannoma. Although it is difficult to differentiate definitively between these lesions preoperatively, imaging findings inconsistent with a diagnosi...
