Cellular schwannomas are a benign variant of classic schwannomas. Their histologic appearance closely mimics that of malignant peripheral nerve-sheath tumors, which are high-grade sarcomas. In this article, we describe what to our knowledge is the first reported case of a cellular schwannoma of the paranasal sinuses and only the 33rd reported case of any schwannoma at this site. We also discuss the histology and management of cellular schwannomas and review the pertinent literature.
细胞性神经鞘瘤是经典神经鞘瘤的一种良性变体。其组织学表现与恶性外周神经鞘膜瘤(一种高级别肉瘤)极为相似。在本文中,我们描述了据我们所知首例报道的鼻窦细胞性神经鞘瘤病例,且该部位的神经鞘瘤仅报道过33例。我们还讨论了细胞性神经鞘瘤的组织学和治疗方法,并回顾了相关文献。
