 Schwannoma is often seen in the head-and-neck resion, but intramuscular schwannoma is rare. We reported intramasseteric schwannoma in a 12-year-old girl. The tumor was enucleated without neurological deficit nor postoperative sequelae. Preoperative diagnosis of schwannoma is difficult due to the presence of cystic degeneration and hypocellular lesion. As schwannoma does not show spontaneous regression, excision is recommended before it increases in size and causes neural disturbances. During surgery, we must pay attention to the facial nerve, which often passes near the tumor.
