Abstract

A 33-year-old, otherwise healthy female nursing student presented to the ear-, nose-, and throat- (ENT) outpatient clinic with a globus sensation that had been progressing for 6 months. Tomographic imaging revealed a neck mass extending from the 4th vertebrum to the subclavicular region and apex of the left lung. A surgical resection with histopathological examination exposed a neurofibroma. Management and differential diagnoses of globus sensation are herein discussed. This case underlines the importance of tomographic imaging, even in common but persisting symptoms such as globus sensation.
