“…These tumours can present anywhere in the body that have nerves coursing through, and therefore can erupt in a variety of locations. Commonly, they develop in the upper extremities and at the cerebellopontine angle intracranially 1 . Pulmonary manifestations remain particularly rare, developing intrapulmonary or endobronchial 2 .…”

Mediastinal mass‐like manifestations often cause alarm and instigate a myriad of investigative testing to rule out insidious malignant processes. However, a unique and benign finding, the schwannoma can present either incidentally or while in pursuit of a symptomatic presentation. Given its rarity, limited literature exists on these neurogenic tumours with less than three dozen reported cases. No specific guidelines exist regarding the extent of required advanced imaging or degree of invasive evaluation. Therefore, practitioners confronted with these intrathoracic tumours may find management challenging or delayed. We present a case discussing a large benign tumour causing symptomatic burden, the investigative methods implored and treatment modality. We add to the literature another unique presentation of an intercostal nerve sheath tumour with schwannoma pathology.
