Robot-assisted enucleation of large dumbbell-shaped esophageal schwannoma: a case report.

BMC surgery
BACKGROUND: Esophageal schwannomas are extremely rare, with few cases reported in the literature. Traditionally, resection of esophageal schwannoma is typically performed using thoracotomy or video-assisted thoracic surgery. However, large, irregular...

Application of Computer-Assisted Endoscopic Ultrasonography Based on Texture Features in Differentiating Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors from Benign Gastric Mesenchymal Tumors.

The Turkish journal of gastroenterology : the official journal of Turkish Society of Gastroenterology
BACKGROUND/AIMS:  Gastrointestinal stromal tumors are common gastric mesenchymal tumors that are potentially malignant. However, endoscopic ultrasonography is poor in diagnosing gastrointestinal stromal tumors. The study investigated the efficacy of ...

Robot-assisted intrathoracic procedure for dumbbell tumour in the prone position.

Interactive cardiovascular and thoracic surgery
A 24-year-old man presented with a dumbbell-shaped right posterior mediastinal mass. The patient was placed in the prone position following general anaesthesia and intubation. After laminectomy and dissection of the dorsal part of the tumour using a ...

Robotic Resection of a Nerve Sheath Tumor Via a Retroperitoneal Approach.

Operative neurosurgery (Hagerstown, Md.)
BACKGROUND: Resection of large nerve sheath tumors in the lumbar spine using minimally invasive approaches is challenging, as approaches to tumors in this region may require facetectomy or partial resection of adjacent ribs for access to the involved...

[Clinical features and surgical treatment of neurilemmoma versus carotid body tumors at bifurcation of carotid artery].

Zhejiang da xue xue bao. Yi xue ban = Journal of Zhejiang University. Medical sciences
OBJECTIVE: To analyze clinical features, surgical treatment and outcomes of neurilemmoma and carotid body tumors in bifurcation of carotid artery.

Robotic paravertebral schwannoma resection at extreme locations of the thoracic cavity.

Neurosurgical focus
Solitary paravertebral schwannomas in the thoracic spine and lacking an intraspinal component are uncommon. These benign nerve sheath tumors are typically treated using complete resection with an excellent outcome. Resection of these tumors is achiev...
