Nerve sheath myxoma, a superficial myxoid tumor, was first described in 1969 by Harkin and Reed. Tumor has cytological and histological resemblance with neurothekeoma, another cutaneous myxoid lesion. Nerve sheath myxoma affects individuals of all age groups and equal predilection for both genders with most favored sites being the fingers and knee. Here, we present a case report of nerve sheath myxoma of the scalp, diagnosed and confirmed with histopathology and immunohistochemistry.
神经鞘黏液瘤是一种浅表黏液样肿瘤,1969年由哈金和里德首次描述。该肿瘤在细胞学和组织学上与另一种皮肤黏液样病变——神经鞘瘤相似。神经鞘黏液瘤可发生于所有年龄组,男女发病率相等,最常见的部位是手指和膝盖。在此,我们报告一例头皮神经鞘黏液瘤病例,通过组织病理学和免疫组织化学检查得以诊断和确诊。
