Giant pleural schwannoma presenting as intractable coughing: A rare case report
While pleural schwannomas typically exhibit a male predilection, our case enunciates a distinctive scenario wherein a pleural schwannoma manifested as persistent, uncontrollable coughing in an adult female. The confirmation of diagnosis was achieved through a comprehensive diagnostic approach encompassing X-ray, Computed Tomography (CT) scan, and immunohistochemical analysis. This novel case emphasizes the importance of meticulous diagnostic imaging and histopathological scrutiny in uncommon presentations of pleural schwannoma. Moreover, our findings underscore the significance of considering benign nerve tumors as a plausible differential diagnosis for patients enduring prolonged, unyielding coughing episodes. Ultimately, we believe that early recognition of such infrequent manifestations may facilitate more informed preoperative evaluation and surgical intervention, eventually contributing to improved patient prognoses.
