Title: Ancient schwannoma of the foot. Author: Graviet S, Sinclair G, Kajani N. Journal: J Foot Ankle Surg; 1995; 34(1):46-50. PubMed ID: 7780392. Abstract: Ancient neurilemoma (schwannoma) is an uncommon variant of neurilemoma. On the basis of histology, this slow-growing, benign neoplasm has often been confused with sarcoma, and this confusion has resulted in overzealous resection. The authors report a case of this lesion affecting the plantar aspect of the foot. A discussion of the clinical and histological findings that emphasizes diagnosis and treatment is included.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
