Journal ArticleDOI
Hepatic schwannoma: A case report and an updated 40-year review of the literature yielding 30 cases
TL;DR: Hepatic schwannoma is a rare benign disease with a good prognosis, however, once the malignant transformation occurs, the prognosis is not satisfied and liver transplantation is often necessary.
Journal ArticleDOI
Schwannoma arising in a lymph node mimicking metastatic pulmonary carcinoma.
TL;DR: A patient with multiple neuromatosis tends to have schwannomas throughout the body, and this is a thought-provoking case, because it involved aSchwannoma arising in a lymph node mimicking metastatic pulmonary carcinoma.

Journal ArticleDOI
Positron Emission Tomography of Schwannomas: Emphasizing Its Potential in Preoperative Planning
TL;DR: FDG uptake in schwannoma as measured on positron emission tomography (PET) is described and no correlation was found between FDG uptake and tumor size or tumor proliferation rate (Ki-67 index).
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantitative F18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography accurately characterizes peripheral nerve sheath tumors as malignant or benign.

TL;DR: Whether F18‐fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG PET) can differentiate malignant (MPNST) from benign PNSTs (PNSTs) is evaluated.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated whether F18fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG PET) can differentiate malignant (MPNST) from benign PNSTs.

TL;DR: It is concluded that FDG PET/CT could play an important role in the staging, restaging, and post-therapy follow-up of malignant schwannomas.
