Neurosurgery, 1978
Abstract Reports of melanotic nerve sheath tumors of Schwann cell origin are rare, only three having been found in the literature. Two new cases of spinal intradural melanotic nerve sheath tumors are reported and the literature is reviewed. Controversy has arisen in regard to the origin of melanin within these tumors.

Trigeminal schwannomas

British Journal of Neurosurgery, 2008
Trigeminal schwannomas are the second most common intracranial schwannoma. They may occur sporadically or in association with neurofibromatosis type 2. The vast majority are benign in nature although malignancies have been reported.

The extrapancreatic nerve plexus may give rise to schwannomas. The aim of this study was to define the clinicopathologic features of peripancreatic schwannoma and to allow improved diagnosis and treatment for this condition.A retrospective analysis was performed on 17 patients with pathologically proven peripancreatic schwannoma (defined as schwannoma ...

Olfactory schwannoma

European Radiology, 2001
Olfactory schwannomas are very rare. For this reason they have never been diagnosed preoperatively. We report a case and describe the CT and MR imaging findings. Clinically, the young age of presentation, and radiologically the presence of bone scalloping, and the absence of both bone sclerosis and a dural tail, may help in the differential diagnosis ...

Journal of Bronchology & Interventional Pulmonology, 2012
Schwannomas are benign nerve-sheath tumors that arise from Schwann cells. They can present as endobronchial lesions with symptoms of obstruction and hemoptysis. We describe the first case of multiple endobronchial schwannomas at 3 different sites in a single patient. The autofluorescence ratio was
