Cellular neurothekeomas (CNTs) are rare, benign cutaneous tumors that arise primarily on the head and neck, with a slight female predominance. CNTs with atypical features have been described, including those with an infiltrative growth pattern. Although CNTs with atypical features are benign, recognition of this entity can pose diagnostic challenges. Here, we report a case of CNT with an unusual clinical presentation on the left second digit, and with atypical histological features including an infiltrative growth pattern, which could have been mistaken for features of malignancy.
细胞性神经鞘瘤（CNTs）是一种罕见的良性皮肤肿瘤，主要发生在头颈部，女性略占优势。已描述了具有非典型特征的CNTs，包括那些具有浸润性生长模式的肿瘤。尽管具有非典型特征的CNTs是良性的，但识别这一实体可能会带来诊断挑战。在此，我们报告一例发生于左手第二指、临床表现不寻常且具有包括浸润性生长模式在内的非典型组织学特征的CNT病例，这些特征可能会被误诊为恶性特征。
