Intra osseous schwannoma - A case report

Schwannoma of the head and neck region is relatively uncommon, histologically distinctive, benign, encapsulated peripheral tumor of Schwann cell origin.

They pose difficulty in preoperative diagnosis but most of the cases are confirmed by histopathology and immunohistochemistry.
