Histologically, the tumor was composed of a mixture of cellular solid componen...

Clinical findings, computed tomography and magnetic resonance images are presented. These characteristics are typical, however not specific to schwannomas. For definitive diagnosis, histology and immunohistochemistry are necessar...
