Primary thyroid schwannoma masquerading as a thyroid nodule.
The thyroid gland is a very rare site for head and neck schwannomas. Till date there have been only 19 reported cases in English literature. Only 25% of schwannomas occur in the head and neck region, most of them arising in relation to the peripheral nerves and cervical sympathetic chain. We report a similar case, with clinical and sonological features of a benign thyroid nodule. The diagnosis of schwannoma was established on the final histopathology report and a review of the slides and the imaging was done to confirm the site of origin. A thorough review of earlier reported cases was done. We summarize the existing knowledge on this entity, emphasizing the challenge of diagnosing it pre-operatively.
