A 38-year review of oral schwannomas and neurofibromas in a Brazilian population: clinical, histopathological and immunohistochemical study

The benign peripheral nerve sheath tumours are rare lesions mainly represented by schwannoma and neurofibroma. The present work evaluated the clinical and histopathological features of schwannomas and neurofibromas of the oral cavity diagnosed in a Brazilian population. Among 9.000 cases of oral les...
