Schwannomas are benign neurogenic neoplasm arise from the peripheral Schwann cells of the nerve sheaths. These tumors present as solitary and encapsulated lesions. Intraoral schwannoma is not commonly found in the palate and extremely rare at the junction of hard and soft palate. These benign lesions are slow-growing tumors with low potential for malignant transformation and need complete excision as treatment. As it has uncommon occurrence and nonspecific clinical presentations, the diagnosis is usually confirmed by histopathological examination and immunohistochemical evaluation. Here, we report a case of a large schwannoma at the junction of the hard and soft palate, which is an extremely rare location of this tumor.
