Tracheal schwannomas are exceedingly rare, accounting for a minute fraction of primary tracheal tumors. They are classified into intraluminal and mixed types, with treatment strategies varying significantly between these subtypes. While thorax tomography is usually sufficient to distinguish intraluminal and mixed type, endobronchial ultrasonography (EBUS) can also be used in cases where the distinction cannot be made clearly with tomography.

Article Synopsis
- Benign mediastinal tumors are generally asymptomatic but can occasionally cause severe issues, as seen in a case involving a huge posterior mediastinal schwannoma that led to respiratory failure.
- A 56-year-old woman with no significant medical history experienced sudden respiratory distress and was hospitalized, where imaging revealed a large mass compressing vital structures in her chest.
- After undergoing en bloc surgical resection of the tumor, she recovered successfully, was taken off ventilator support, and showed no further symptoms during follow-up.

A ganglioneuroma is a rare, benign, neurogenic tumor originating from the sympathetic ganglion.

Herein, we report two surgically resected cases of mediastinal ganglioneuroma in adults.
