Abstract

Perineurioma is an exceptional, benign neoplasm entirely composed of neoplastic perineurial cells and arises from the peripheral nerve. Pertaining to location, the neoplasm predominantly demonstrates configurations such as intra-neural or extra-neural, confined to the soft tissue. Perineurioma was initially scripted by Lazarus and Trombetta in 1978 and is additionally nomenclated as localized hypertrophic neuropathy1. Extra-neural soft tissue perineurioma and mucosal (intestinal) perineurioma are frequent, in contrast to intra-neural perineurioma or localized hypertrophic neuropathy subtype1, 2.

Highlights

  • Perineurioma is an exceptional, benign neoplasm entirely composed of neoplastic perineurial cells and arises from the peripheral nerve

  • Low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma and intramuscular / cellular myxoma are neoplasms which demonstrate distinct, identical features such as a) occurrence in middle aged adults with a preponderance of lesions upon the extremities b) on cytological examination, aforesaid neoplasia enunciate bland, uniform spindle-shaped cells admixed within a myxoid stroma c) aforementioned neoplasia depict overlapping immune phenotypes[1,2]

  • Extra-neural perineurioma is commonly delineated within superficial soft tissue of trunk and extremities, especially the hands[5,6]. It is a variant of extra-neural soft tissue perineurioma and is composed of plump, spindle shaped and epitheloid tumour cells encompassed in a hyalinised stroma
