Abstract:
Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs) are soft tissue sarcomas that develop from peripheral nerve sheath cells (T. Hirose, B.W. Scheithauer). These tumors are characterized by aggressive growth with an unfavorable outcome and may develop de novo or through malignant transformation of schwannomas, neurofibromas, or ganglioneuromas. MPNSTs are characterized by a rapid course and a poor prognosis. In this article, we reported cases of patients with malignant peripheral nerve tumors of the brachial plexus trunks and spinal localization.
