We report a case of two adjacent femoral subperiosteal schwannomas in a 38-year-old man. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a schwannoma arising as a surface lesion of bone. Radiographs showed focal cortical scalloping and MR imaging two small hyperintense nodules on T2-weighted and STIR images which enhanced with a gadolinium chelate.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
