Preferred Label : neurilemmoma;
MeSH definition : A neoplasm that arises from SCHWANN CELLS of the cranial, peripheral, and autonomic
nerves. Clinically, these tumors may present as a cranial neuropathy, abdominal or
soft tissue mass, intracranial lesion, or with spinal cord compression. Histologically,
these tumors are encapsulated, highly vascular, and composed of a homogenous pattern
of biphasic fusiform-shaped cells that may have a palisaded appearance. (From DeVita
