Neurogenic Tumor of the Chest

A neurogenic tumor of the chest is a type of growth that arises from nerve tissue located in the thoracic area, which includes parts of the body like the chest and upper back. These tumors can be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous) and often develop along the spinal cord or peripheral nerves. Symptoms may include pain, discomfort, or issues with movement or sensation, depending on their size and location. Diagnosis often involves imaging tests, and treatment can vary from regular monitoring to surgery or radiation, depending on the tumor's nature and impact on health.
