충수돌기에서 발생한 신경초종: 증례 보고 = Schwannoma of the Appendix: A Case Report

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Schwannoma is a benign neurogenic tumor arising from the nerve sheath, and it presents as a well defined mass. Isolated gastrointestinal schwannoma is a relatively rare finding and schwannoma of the appendix is extremely rare. We report here on a case of schwannoma that arose from the appendix, and this lesion was pathologically confirmed.

국문 초록 (Abstract)

신경초종은 신경초에서 발생하는 신경원성 종양이며 대개 경계가 좋고 양성인 경우가 많다. 위장관계에서 드물게 발생하며 충수돌기에서 발생한 신경초종은 매우 드물다. 충수돌기에서 생긴 신경초종으로 수술 후 병리 조직학적으로 확진된 증례를 경험하였기에 이를 보고한다.
