    Author: Tellechea O, Reis JP, Baptista AP.
    Journal: Ann Dermatol Venereol; 1992; 119(8):547-50. PubMed ID: 1485756.
    Abstract:
    The histological study of a painful cutaneous nodule located in the interscapular region, which had been present for 20 years in a 59-year old male patient has show typical features of dermal myxoma of the nerve sheaths. This was a lobulated myxomatous tumour with fusiform and dendritic cells plus a few epithelioid and multinucleate cells. Immunostaining was positive for the S100 protein and negative for factor XIIIa and EMA. These data suggest that this tumour was of schwannian origin.
