Schwannoma - un caso atipico de dolor pleuritico

Abstract

Spinal Schwannomas account for 30% of primitive spinal tumors. Symptoms are related to tumor location and its proximity to spinal cord and nerve roots. Radiographic and histopathologic examinations are vital diagnostic tools. Complete surgical resection is the mainstay of treatment, and offers an excellent prognosis.
