Abstract:

The authors describe surgical treatment of a patient with giant neuroma of thoracic spine. The patient underwent en-bloc resection of tumor via transthoracic extrapleural access. Technical nuances of surgery and operational capabilities of transthoracic extrapleural access for resection of neurogenic tumors of posterior mediastinum are demonstrated. Capabilities of transthoracic extrapleural access are comparable to thoracotomy. The first experience of transthoracic extrapleural access showed its effectiveness in resection of giant neuromas of thoracic spine. Indisputable advantage of this access is less surgical injury compared to thoracotomy. A brief literature review is presented.
