Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Juntendo University School of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan.

A 55-year-old man was admitted to hospital because of an abnormal shadow on his chest X-ray film. On examination, the patient appeared healthy. CT scan, magnetic resonance imaging, and ultrasonography showed evidence of a tumor. At operation, a tumor was found originating from the left recurrent nerve, and it was removed together with the vagus nerve. The patient had a favorable postoperative course except for hoarseness, and was discharged on the 31st postoperative day. Mediastinal neurinoma originating from the recurrent nerve is rare, and only 20 cases have been reported in Japan.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008279 Magnetic Resonance Imaging Non-invasive method of demonstrating internal anatomy based on the principle that atomic nuclei in a strong magnetic field absorb pulses of radiofrequency energy and emit them as radiowaves which can be reconstructed into computerized images. The concept includes proton spin tomographic techniques.

D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D009442 Neurilemmoma A neoplasm that arises from SCHWANN CELLS of the cranial, peripheral, and autonomic nerves. Clinically, these tumors may present as a cranial neuropathy, abdominal or soft tissue mass, intracranial lesion, or with spinal cord compression. Histologically, these tumors are encapsulated, highly vascular, and composed of a homogenous pattern of biphasic fusiform-shaped cells that may have a palisaded appearance.

D012009 Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Branches of the vagus (tenth cranial) nerve. The recurrent laryngeal nerves originate more caudally than the superior laryngeal nerves and follow different paths on the right and left sides. They carry efferents to all muscles of the larynx except the cricothyroid and carry sensory and autonomic fibers to the laryngeal, pharyngeal, tracheal, and cardiac regions.
