Biliary Schwannoma That Required Differentiation from Bile Duct Cancer [PDF]
Schwannomas are benign tumors originating from Schwann cells, which are the main component of the neural sheath. Biliary schwannomas are extremely rare. We report the case of a 78-year-old man who presented with no abdominal symptoms or jaundice.
