Benign Glandular Schwannoma With Ancient Change.
American Journal of Dermatopathology 2017 April
Benign glandular schwannomas are rare and should be distinguished from malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors with similar divergent tissue differentiation. The authors present a benign glandular schwannoma with ancient change that developed in the subcutis of a 46-year-old man's posterior calf. He lacked stigmata of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). The glandular elements stained positively for epithelial membrane antigen and pancytokeratin. The spindled cells stained positively for SOX10 and S100 protein, supporting schwannian (neural crest) differentiation. The tumor's location and histopathology suggest that the pathogenesis stems from entrapment of sweat glands. Finally, it must be recognized that ancient change may mimic malignancy in these neoplasms as the malignant counterparts have a greater association with NF1 and a poorer prognosis.
