Resumen (ES)

Schwannoma is a benign, encapsulated neoplasm
whose origin is derived from Schwann cells of the peripheral
nerve sheath. An Schwannoma of the median nerve on the
wrist of a 67 years old male, is described. These tumors
usually present as mobile mass, pain and neurological
symptoms just as weakness, paresthesia or sensory disturbances;
in this patient, the lesion is an asymptomatic soft-tissue
mass. Differential diagnosis achieved with carpal ganglion,
but the histological diagnosis reported Schwannoma
prior microsurgical excision. Preservation of nerve continuity
and the adequate extirpation are the purposes of the therapeutical
strategia. Actually, the patient are sympton-free, 10
months after the operation.
