  • Title: Endobronchial schwannoma.
    Author: Dumoulin E, Gui X, Stather DR, MacEachern P, Tremblay A.
    Journal: J Bronchology Interv Pulmonol; 2012 Jan; 19(1):75-7. PubMed ID: 23207271.
    Abstract:
    Schwannomas are benign nerve-sheath tumors that arise from Schwann cells. They can present as endobronchial lesions with symptoms of obstruction and hemoptysis. We describe the first case of multiple endobronchial schwannomas at 3 different sites in a single patient. The autofluorescence ratio was <0.5 for 2 of 3 lesions. The optimal follow-up and treatment plan for these lesions remain unknown, especially in asymptomatic patients.
