Abstract:
Cervical ganglioneuroma combined with neurofibromatosis type I is very rare. This article reports a case of a 21-year-old male patient with a rare presentation of cervical ganglioneuroma and neurofibromatosis type I. In this patient, the tumors on both sides of the cervical spine were surgically removed with good results. The effects and advantages of surgery when both diseases coexist are discussed, as well as further investigation into possible causal relationships between these two pathologies.
