Abstract
Brachial plexus schwannomas are rare tumors. They are benign nerve sheath tumors and only about 5% of Schwannoma arise from the brachial plexus. Due to its rarity and complex anatomical location they can pose a formidable challenge to surgeons. We present a case of a young patient who presented with an supraclavicular swelling three months, that were proven to be schwannoma on histopathology.
Key Words: Brachial plexus, Immobilization, Schwannoma
