  • Title: Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor in a cat.
    Author: Watrous BJ, Lipscomb TP, Heidel JR, Normal LM.
    Journal: Vet Radiol Ultrasound; 1999; 40(6):638-40. PubMed ID: 10608693.
    Abstract:
    A report of a cat with a cranial tumor of nerve sheath origin is presented. The cranial mass, with a cyst-like character on presentation to the referring veterinarian suggested a benign lesion, but the clinical course was rapid and indicative of central nervous system involvement. The tumor was poorly differentiated by histologic examination, but immunohistochemistry was consistent with Schwann cell origin. Features of peripheral nerve sheath tumors in cats and other species are briefly discussed.
