  • Title: Schwannoma of the tonsil.
    Author: Lee BJ, Wang SG, Lee JC, Lee IW.
    Journal: Ear Nose Throat J; 2007 Jun; 86(6):354-5. PubMed ID: 17703816.
    Abstract:
    Between 25 and 48% of schwannomas have been reported to occur in the head and neck region; the acoustic nerve is involved in most cases. Schwannomas arising in the tonsil are extremely uncommon. We report a case of tonsillar schwannoma in a 23-year-old woman. We also review the literature on this rare entity.
