Cellular schwannoma
Updates to Case Attributes
A pathologically proven case of cellular spindle cell tumour, keeping with cellular active schwannoma, ulcerated and inflamed.Such lesion is locally aggressive and biologic tendency for local recurrences.
The microscopic picture revealed tissue fragments formed of cellular growth of bundles of spindle cells with spindle wavy nuclei with focal palisading. Surface ulceration, non-specific inflammation and areas of haemorrhage as well as hyalinized blood vessels. No atypical mitotic figures nor necrosis are seen.
Cellular schwannoma is an unusual benign neoplasm that may cause bone erosion. It is highly cellular nerve-sheath benign tumour. Its radiologic and histologic appearance mimics that of a malignant neoplasm. The outcome is favourable without a metastatic spread. A typical tumour is solitary and at least partially encapsulated.1.
