Article Title: | Massive vagal schwannoma in an 11-year-old girl |
Abstract: | We describe an unusual case of a young girl presenting with a large vagal schwannoma necessitating a transcervical-mandibulotomy approach for total tumor resection. The presentation is unique due to the size of the lesion, the patient’s age, the operative approach, and molecular pathology. © 2021 The Authors.
