Abstract:
Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors(MPNST) are uncommon neoplasms with an incidence of 0.001% in general population. Multifocality is a rare manifestation of MPNST . A case of a 65 year old patient who presented with multiple swellings involving the neck, extremity and back without associated neurofibromatosis is reported for its rarity of presentation.. Diagnosis was made by FNAC and confirmed by peroperative findings and histopathology.
