  • Title: Subcarinal neurogenic tumor: report of a case.
    Author: Endo S, Murayama F, Yamaguchi T, Hasegawa T, Sohara Y, Fuse K, Kuriki K, Saito K.
    Journal: Surg Today; 1998; 28(12):1307-9. PubMed ID: 9872556.
    Abstract:
    We present herein the rare case of a 63-year-old man in whom a subcarinal tumor, demonstrated by enhanced chest computed tomograms (CT), was subsequently confirmed to be a neurilemmoma by histological examination following tumor resection through a diagnostic thoracoscopy. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and transesophageal ultrasonogram findings excluded the possibility of malignant lymphoadenopathy. As the patient was also found to have an elevated level of the squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) tumor marker which did not resolve postoperatively, close follow-up will be required.
