Abstract EN

Schwannomas are indolent benign lesions arising from schwann cells in the nerve.

They are especially rare in the paediatric population.

We report an interesting case of a swelling in the upper neck, which highlights an atypical presentation of this tumour, as well as the complex details of its clinical, radiological, and surgical management.
