摘要

Schwannomas, also known as neuroma/neurolemma, are benign tumors of the nerve sheath. Schwannomas are very rare in the hypopharyngeal area in the literature. In this article, we present a rare case of hypopharyngeal schwannoma, which was found in a 62-year-old female patient, which did not show any symptoms other than dysphagia and foreign body sensation in the throat.
