Single-stage total resection of giant dumbbell-shaped hypoglossal schwannoma: a case report.
Acta Neurochirurgica 2018 April
Extensive large dumbbell-shaped hypoglossal schwannoma is extremely rare, and total resection is nearly impossible. We present a case of a 61-year-old male with a giant-size hypoglossal schwannoma with moderate tongue atrophy. The tumor extended from the enlarged hypoglossal canal to the brainstem intradurally and the high cervical region extradurally. Through the extreme lateral infrajugular transcondylar (ELITE) skull base approach, the tumor was totally removed in a single-stage operation. Single-stage total resection is feasible by an experienced skull base team utilizing transcondylar skull base techniques and high cervical dissection.
