Ganglioneuromaは神経節細胞を有する稀な良性腫瘍で若年成人の後縦隔,副腎,腰仙部神経節に発生する.今回,頸部神経節に発生し砂時計型を呈したgan—glioneuromaの1例を経験したので文献的考察を加え報告する.
The authors report a case of a 20 year old male with ganglioneuroma in the cervical ganglion. The patient was complaining of a mass in the neck on his right-hand side, and neurological examination revealed hypesthesia on the C5 area of the same side. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging scan showed extradural dumbell-shaped tumor from C3 to C5 levels. A two-staged operation was performed to remove the tumor totally, and a ganglioneuroma was diagnosed. After surgery, he complained of facial weakness and hearing disturbance on the left side. As MRI scan revealed bi-lateral cerebro-pontine angle tumors, he was diagnosed as having neurofibromatosis-2. This report may repre-sent a rare case of ganglioneuroma with neurofibromato-sis-2.
