“…With puncturing the skin, there is a small risk of bleeding, infection, and discomfort. Pain at the puncture site is usually well tolerated and may vary based on the underlying pathology [ 5 ]. Local pressure is usually sufficient for bleeding.…”

Fine-needle aspiration (FNA) is a generally accepted tool for safe diagnostic evaluation in the workup of lesions and masses. Aside from the commonly discussed risks of infection and minor bleeding related to skin puncture, other more serious complications have been reported sparingly. We present two cases of pneumothorax from FNA of neck structures, which have been theorized but not previously reported to our knowledge. Discussion of cases of this complication rather than solely a theoretical understanding of it will aid in diagnosis and management of this complication.

Zusammenfassung: Es wird ª eine 63j~ihrige Patientin mit seit fª Jahren bestehender, progredienter, linksbetonter Paraparese mit Sensibilit~itsst6rungen berichtet. Vor zwei Jahren waren rezidivierende Schmerzen und eine Schwfiche des linken Armes, vorwiegend im Ulnarisversorgungsgebiet, hinzugekommen. Eine Thoraxª me hatte eine Raumforderung der linken oberen Thoraxapertur erbracht. CT und MRT zeigten dann eine Ausdehnung der Raumforderung nach intraspinal. Unter der Verdachtsdiagnose eines nach intraspinal vorgewachsenen Pancoast-Tumors wurde die Patientin operiert, wobei sich intraoperativ der Befund eines extraduralen Meningeoms ergab. Der Tumor konnte komplett entfernt werden.

Case Report Abstract: We report the case of a 63-year-old female patient with a 5-year history of progressive paraparesis with sensory disturbances. Since 2 years, she also complained of remitting painful sensations and motor weakness of the left ama, mainly in the ulnaric nerve region. A plain X-ray of the chest revealed a mass in the left upper thoracic aperture. CT and MRT showed an extension of the mass into the intraspinal cavity. A neurosurgic operation was performed immediately, suspecting a Pancoast tumor invading the intraspinal canal. Intraoperative histology revealed the diagnosis of an extradural meningioma. The tumor has been resected completely. Key Words: Extradural/epidural spinal meningioma -tntrathoracic mass ~Institut fª Anatomie Lehrstuhl II und 2Abteilung fª Neuroradiologie

Schwannoma or neurilemmoma is a benign encapsulated slow-growing tumor that originates from a Schwann cell of a nerve, and is rare at intraoral locations. Different histological variants of schwannomas have been described, of these degenerative or ancient schwannoma is probably one of the least common in the oral cavity with only 16 previously reported cases, of which only one has been described in palatal location. Although ancient schwannoma shows particular characteristics, it is difficult to diagnose based on clinical and imaging appearance alone; as a result, morphological examination assisted by ancillary techniques is necessary to establish a definite diagnosis. We present a clinicopathological description of this rare variant of schwannoma, located in an unusual intraoral site, of a 26-year-old female. We illustrate the optical, immunohistochemical and ultrastructural characterization that aid diagnosis, as well as providing a review of the relevant published data of this unusual tumor.
