dc.description.abstract | We report a case of neurofibroma arising from the left phrenic nerve and not associated with neurofibromatosis in a 46-year-old male. The patient presented with gradually progressive breathlessness and pain in chest for six months. Radiological investigations revealed a posterior mediastinal mass on the left side of the chest. On postero-lateral thoracotomy, the resected tumour was found to be arising from the phrenic nerve. Histopathological examination confirmed it to be a neurofibroma. Absence of any other distinctive lesions of neurofibromatosis makes this an unusual presentation. | en_US |
