    The latter had, through the years, been variously described as bizarre cutaneous neurofibroma, myxoma of nerve sheath, and pacinian neurofibroma. [4] Clinically, neurothekeomas present as a solitary nodule of the skin. The most common sites of occurrence are the head and neck and the extremities.

  3. Nerve sheath tumor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nerve_sheath_tumor

    The primary Schwann cell differentiation and neoplastic proliferations are characteristics of peripheral nerve sheath tumors. For instance, the Schwann cell, which is the major neoplastic cell component of neurofibroma, [7] is cytologically distinguished by the expression of S-100 protein and wavy nuclear outlines.

  4. Neurofibroma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurofibroma

    A neurofibroma is a benign nerve-sheath tumor in the peripheral nervous system. In 90% of cases, they are found as stand-alone tumors ( solitary neurofibroma , solitary nerve sheath tumor [ 1 ] or sporadic neurofibroma [ 1 ] ), while the remainder are found in persons with neurofibromatosis type I (NF1), an autosomal-dominant genetically ...

    Ischemic fasciities (IF), also termed atypical decubital fibroplasia [1] or decubital ischemic fasciitis, [2] is a rare pseudosarcomatous (i.e. easily mistaken for a sarcoma) tumor. It was first described by E. A. Montgomery et al. in 1992. [ 3 ]
