  • Title: Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumour of the trigeminal nerve: case report and literature review.
    Author: Bowers CA, Taussky P, Duhon BS, Chin SS, Couldwell WT.
    Journal: Br J Neurosurg; 2011 Dec; 25(6):750-3. PubMed ID: 21513444.
    Abstract:
    Although all trigeminal nerve schwannomas are uncommon, malignant schwannomas are extraordinarily rare. We describe a patient who presented with clinical and radiological features of a trigeminal schwannoma; however, pathological analysis showed a malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumour (WHO Grade IV). We discuss these extremely rare tumours and their management.
