Abstract

The treatment of symptomatic Schwannoma is surgical excision. However, in the case of major peripheral nerves with motor function, there are concerns including neurological complications following surgery. This study was designed to evaluate the surgical outcome of Schwannomas originating from major peripheral nerves of the lower limb. Additionally, we sought to find out the predictable factors for permanent neurological deficits. Between 2004 and 2008, 30 consecutive Schwannomas underwent simple excision or enucleation. Surgical outcomes after excision were evaluated with an emphasis on neurological deficits and recurrence. Neurological complications were classified as major or minor neurological deficits and evaluated immediately after surgery and at final follow-up. Risk factors for development of neurological deficits were identified. Twenty-three patients (23/30, 76.7 %) developed neurological deficits immediately after surgery. After a mean of 58.8 months (32-79 months), 19 patients (19/30, 63.3 %) showed no residual neurological deficits. Among the remaining 11 (11/30, 36.7 %), nine patients had tolerable symptoms and two patients had major neurological deficits including significant motor weakness and sensory impairment...Continue Reading
