Neuroblastoma-like schwannoma: Case report with histopathologic correlation

The neuroblastoma-like schwannoma is considered a very rare variant of schwannoma, and represents a diagnostic challenge given its low incidence and few reports. We present the case of a 40-year-old woman with a painful nodule with progressive growth in the anterior thoracic wall. After histopathological and immunophenotypic analysis, and a literature case review, with emphasis in the differential diagnosis and immunohistochemical analysis, the diagnosis of neuroblastoma-like schwannoma was made.
