Case Discussion
C5 nerve sheath tumour. This is most likely a schwannoma or neurofibroma. Radiologically it is often not possible to distinguish the subtype of peripheral nerve sheath tumour.
This changed only minimally over 3 years of interval imaging.
When small, they may be mistaken for lymph nodes on ultrasound.
