Title: Intrabronchial neurilemmoma--review of cases in Japan. Author: Shirakusa T, Takada S, Yamazaki S, Ueda H, Ando K, Kusano T, Eimoto T. Journal: Thorac Cardiovasc Surg; 1989 Dec; 37(6):388-90. PubMed ID: 2694443. Abstract: We recently encountered a case of intrabronchial neurilemmoma. The patient was a 15-year-old boy who had a wheeze. After observation with a bronchofiberscope, a wedge resection of the left main bronchus was performed. No postoperative complications nor recurrence was seen. To date, five cases of intrabronchial neurilemmoma have been reported in the Japanese Journals. Surgical removal was performed in 4 of 5 and bronchofiberscopic excision in 1. This paper summarizes the clinical features of these cases as well as our own case.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
