Overview
Schwannoma may be classified according to pathology into 4 subtypes: conventional schwannoma, cellular schwannoma, plexiform schwannoma, and melanotic schwannoma.[1]
Classification
Pathology Schwannoma may be classified into 4 subtypes:[1]
- Conventional schwannoma
- Cellular schwannoma
- Plexiform schwannoma
- Melanotic schwannoma
Location
- cranial nerves:
- Acoustic neuroma (most common)
- Trigeminal schwannoma
- Facial nerve schwannoma
- Jugular foramen schwannoma
- Hypoglossal schwannomas
- Spinal schwannoma
- intercostal nerve schwannoma
- flexor surfaces of upper and lower limbs (specifically ulnar and peroneal nerves)
- posterior mediastinum schwannoma
- retroperitoneum schwannoma
- intracerebral schwannoma
