足部丛状神经鞘瘤:病例报告

Abstract

Plexiform schwannoma a rare subtype of schwannoma. Often presenting equally in males and females, especially in childhood. Although the causes are still unidentifiable, plexiform schwannomas are common in the head and neck regions. Hence, we present a case of plexiform schwannoma in a 14-year-old male with an uncommon location, specifically in the sole of the foot. Histopathological examination revealed features characteristic of plexiform schwannoma, including Antoni A and B areas, Verocay bodies and strong S100 positivity. The lesion was excised completely to reduce the risk of recurrence. Although these schwannomas are considered mostly benign, histological and immunohistochemical examination are necessary to rule out more sinister pathologies and guide management.
