Schwannomas of the central nervous system

Abstract

Isolated schwannomas may occur in many different situations within the central nervous system. Most neurilemmomas are benign, and enucleation after longitudinal dissection of the nerve will usually affect a cure. It is for this reason that the roentgenological appearances should be appreciated and this diagnosis considered so as to attempt total surgical removal.
