  • Title: Subperiosteal schwannomas of the femur.
    Author: Verma RR, Khan MT, Davies AM, Mangham DC, Grimer RJ.
    Journal: Skeletal Radiol; 2002 Jul; 31(7):422-5. PubMed ID: 12107576.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of two adjacent femoral subperiosteal schwannomas in a 38-year-old man. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a schwannoma arising as a surface lesion of bone. Radiographs showed focal cortical scalloping and MR imaging two small hyperintense nodules on T2-weighted and STIR images which enhanced with a gadolinium chelate.
