Abstract

Otuz yedi yaşında erkek hasta, trafik kazası sonrasında ortaya çıkan nörolojik bulgularla hastaneye yatırıldı. Fizik muayenesinde kazaya bağlı travmatik bir yaralanma saptanmadı. Boynun manyetik rezonans görüntülemesinde servikal 1-2 omur seviyesinde düzgün sınırlı, homojen kontrast tutulum gösteren bir kitle saptandı. Elektif şartlarda ameliyat edilen hastadan çıkarılan kitlenin patolojik tanısı schwannom idi. Hastanın nörolojik bulguları ameliyat sonrası ikinci gün kayboldu. Altı ay sonra yapılan muayenesinde herhangi bir nörolojik defisit saptanmadı. Nörolojik bulguların travma sonrası ortaya çıktığı ve tanının bu şekilde konduğu servikal schwannom literatürde bildirilmemiştir.

Abstract

A 37-year-old man was admitted with neurological complaints after a traffic accident. Physical examination showed no signs of injury due to the accident. Magnetic resonance imaging of the neck revealed a well-demarcated lesion showing homogeneous contrast enhancement at the level of C1-2. The patient underwent elective surgery, and histopathological diagnosis of the surgical specimen was made as cervical schwannoma. His neurological complaints disappeared on the second postoperative day. No neurological deficit was observed at six-month follow-up. To our knowledge, there has been no literature report in which the diagnosis of cervical schwannoma was made during investigation of trauma-induced neurological symptoms.
