Abstract:
A 34-year-old white female with a 5-cm malignant schwannoma of the upper thigh underwent complete removal of the tumor by fresh-tissue Mohs surgical excision. The patient refused postoperative radiotherapy, and is without signs of recurrence 5 years after surgery. Mohs surgical excision in the treatment of malignant schwannoma has not to our knowledge been reported previously.
