Abstract

Schwannomas are benign peripheral nerve sheath neoplasms that grow slowly and arise from Schwann cells. Here we report a case of an intraosseous schwannoma, with recent updates of molecular characterization and immunohistochemical data, affecting the left mandibular ramus featuring multilocular well-defined radiolucency making it difficult to diagnose.
