Author ProfileAbstract
Cervical vagal schwannoma is a rare clinical entity which requires
different clinical approach than other neck swellings. Magnetic
resonance Imaging is the preferred initial diagnostic test.
Complications may arise due to vagal stimulation in unsuspecting open
biopsies. Surgical excision with perioperative vagal monitoring is
recommended for treatment of vagal schwannomas.20 Jun 2022Submitted to Clinical Case Reports 20 Jun 2022Submission Checks Completed
