Neurofibromas characteristically consist of CD34 positive spindle cells with thin, wavy, nuclei and wavy collagen bands. Previous reports have described segments of schwannomas with neurofibroma features as hybrid tumors, although hybrid tumors were diagnosed based on partial CD34 positivity in many previous reports. On the other hand, the Antoni B area of some schwannomas was reported to be positive for CD34. Therefore, the definition of a hybrid tumor has not been clear. The objective of this study was to determine whether only CD34 positive findings in schwannomas could be used to define a hybrid tumor. In the analysis of our patient with schwannomatosis caused by a novel <jats:italic>LZTR1<\/jats:italic> germline mutation, part of the tumor had CD34 positive hypocellular regions. These regions contained no thin, wavy, nuclei, indicating an Antoni B area. Laser microdissection was used to investigate the genetic background and differences in molecular mechanisms between CD34 positive and CD34 negative regions. All mutations identified in CD34 positive regions were also found in CD34 negative regions. Our data could not clear the genetic background of Antoni B which was CD34 positive area. We then reviewed the pathologies of 66 sporadic schwannomas. Histopathological examinations of all schwannomas revealed the absence of thin, wavy, nuclei and wavy collagen bands, and no hybrid tumors were found in any of the cases. Ten of 66 patients were randomly selected for CD34 immunostaining and positivity was found in all cases. Our data suggest that it is difficult to distinguish schwannomas by staining for CD34 alone, as Antoni B areas can also be positive for CD34. Therefore, CD34 staining alone should not be used to diagnose hybrid tumors in patients with schwannomas.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/1346-8138.17343","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,22]],"date-time":"2024-06-22T08:15:16Z","timestamp":1719044116000},"page":"1461-1469","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Reevaluating
