Abstract
Diagnostic and surgical difficulties were presented in case of a giant mass, found incidentally, in a 65-year-old healthy and asymptomatic man. The patient underwent different diagnostic procedures. Surgery was the treatment of choice. A combination of both open technique and videothoracoscopy to reduce the risk of seeding, pending a certain diagnosis, was resolutive. The postoperative period and recovery time were uneventful. The patient was discharged on the 5th postoperative day. The histological diagnosis was benign schwannoma. There are different aspects to think about, based also on the experience of each center. According to our experience, this is a rare situation; the combined surgical techniques to control the vascular risk and tissue infiltration of the mass seemed to us the approach of choice
