Abstract We present the case of a 60‐year‐old female patient with no prior history of any systemic disease. She suffered from a prolonged cough that lasted more than 3 months, associated with poor appetite and weight loss of 5 kg. The pathology report of the pre‐operative transbronchial needle biopsy was consistent with a neurogenic tumour. Chest computed tomography (CT) revealed a right lower lobe (RLL) mass‐like consolidation of 8.67 cm with obstructive pneumonitis and suspicious posterior mediastinal invasion. The tumour was surgically resected with bronchial reconstruction, and the pathological diagnosis was intrabronchial schwannoma located inside the bronchus, a rare tumour that should be included as one of the differential diagnoses of primary bronchial tumours. The possibility of a surgical completed resection should be considered in patients with airway obstruction symptoms. |
