Abstract
Tumours categorized as generic admixture of neural tissue and skeletal tissue are benign triton tumour, neurofibroma and commonly discerned rhabdomyosarcoma. Benign triton tumour is an exceptional, developmental lesion comprised of commingled mature skeletal muscle tissue and mature neural tissue. The neoplasm is additionally nomenclated as “neuromuscular hamartoma” or “neuromuscular choristoma” “Triton” terminology is a derivative of amphibian triton salamander wherein normal nerve can induce regeneration of skeletal muscle.

Benign triton tumour is an exceptional, developmental lesion comprised of commingled mature skeletal muscle tissue and mature neural tissue
As the neoplasm is composed of miniature nodules and fascicles, is traversed by dense, fibrous tissue septa and is incorporated with well developed, striated muscle fibres along with variable proportion of myelinated and non myelinated nerve fibres, tumour circumscription ensues with flattened, projected layering of perineurial cells, immune reactive to epithelial membrane antigen(EMA) [6,7]
Summary
Tumours categorized as generic admixture of neural tissue and skeletal tissue are benign triton tumour, neurofibroma and commonly discerned rhabdomyosarcoma. Benign triton tumour is an exceptional, developmental lesion comprised of commingled mature skeletal muscle tissue and mature neural tissue. Therapy can engender residual nerve dysfunction upon attempted surgical extermination in certain tumours, whereas specific neoplasms can retrogress spontaneously.
