Patna Medical College and Hospital, Patna, India.

Infraorbital nerve schwannoma is an infrequent entity that is rarely reported in the paediatric population. This case report is a summed-up report of this infrequent diagnosis, its presentation, and management from an otorhinolaryngologist's perspective. It is reported here for its rarity, inherent surgical challenge, and academic interest. We report a case of a 13-year-old boy with infraorbital nerve schwannoma arising from its two terminal branches. We performed its surgical excision without any disabling deformity. The peculiarity of this case gives insight into the varied presentation of schwannoma. It is important to identify such cases with a high degree of suspicion and treat them accordingly.
