Although gastric schwannomas usually are nonmalignant, these tumors can undergo malignant transformation. For diagnosis, endoluminal routes are believed to decrease the chance of cancerous cell dissemination. We present a case where a percutaneous route was utilized with supporting evidence for the safe use of this method for diagnosis.

尽管胃神经鞘瘤通常为非恶性肿瘤，但这些肿瘤可发生恶变。对于诊断而言，腔内途径被认为可降低癌细胞播散的几率。我们报告一例采用经皮途径的病例，并提供了支持该方法安全用于诊断的证据。
