A Recurrent Cellular Schwannoma

Cellular schwannoma is an uncommon variant of schwannomas that can occur in a peripheral nerve.

description Cellular schwannoma is an uncommon variant of schwannomas that can occur in a peripheral nerve. Although cellular schwannomas typically do not differ in prognosis from regular schwannomas, they are known to cause local recurrence when not completely resected. Here, we report the case of a patient with cellular schwannoma of the posterior mediastinum, which recurred after 13 years.
