ABSTRACT

Los neurinomas son tumores de la membranade las células de Schwann (neurilema) poco frecuentes ehistológicamente benignos. Pueden presentarse en cualquier lugar del sistema nervioso, siempre en relación con nervios periféricos o craneales. Representan aproximadamente un tercio de todos los tumores espinales y su localización más habitual es la extramedular e intradural. Dicha localización predispone a complicaciones compresivas y quirúrgicas.Se presenta el caso de un varón de 55 años intervenido deun neurinoma cervical de localización extramedular e intradural al que no se pudo realizar una extirpación completa. El posoperatorio cursó con la afectación de la rama externa del nervio espinal.Se describen las características clínico-anatomopatológicas de dicho tumor y la importancia de la electromiografía en el diagnóstico de la lesión del nervio espinal accesorio


Neurinomas are uncommon and histologicallybenign tumors of the Schwann cell membrane (neurilemma).They may occur in any site of the nervous system, alwaysin relationship with peripheral or cranial nerves. Theyrepresent approximately one third of all the spinal tumors, their most common site being extramedullary and intradural. This location predisposes to compression and surgical complications.The case of a 55 year old man operated on for intradural,extramedullary located cervical neurinoma that could notbe completely excised is presented. The post-operative period occurs with involvement of the external branch of the spinal nerve.The clinical and anatomical characteristics of this tumorand the importance of the electromyography in the diagnosis of the accessory spinal nerve injury are described
