Although any part of the body can be affected, the breast is a quite unusual site for schwannomas. We report herein a case of schwannoma presenting as a breast tumor. In the current case, the tumor showed both clinically and mammographically as a well-defined breast mass. Of interest, sonographically, the well-defined mass appeared to be located in subcutaneous tissue, not in breast parenchyma, and this finding was confirmed histopathologically. These findings indicate the possibility that a schwannoma arising from subcutaneous breast tissue can show exophytic growth to the breast and appear as a breast tumor. In other words, our case implies the possible presence of a \u201cpseudo\u201d breast schwannoma.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.9738\/intsurg-d-13-00145.1","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,5,15]],"date-time":"2014-05-15T18:05:42Z","timestamp":1400177142000},"page":"196-199","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["A Rare Case of Anterior Chest Wall Schwannoma Masquerading as a Breast Tumor"],"prefix":"10.9738","volume":"99","author":[{"given":"Takaaki","family":"Fujii","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Surgical Science, Graduate School of Medicine, Gunma University, Gunma, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Reina","family":"Yajima","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Surgical Science, Graduate School of Medicine, Gunma University, Gunma, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hiroki","family":"Morita","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Surgical Science, Graduate School of Medicine, Gunma University, Gunma, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Soichi","family":"Tsutsumi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Surgical Science, Graduate School of Medicine, Gunma University, Gunma, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Takayuki","family":"Asao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Surgical Science, Graduate School of Medicine, Gunma University, Gunma, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hiroyuki","family":"Kuwano","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Surgical Science, Graduate School of Medicine, Gunma University, Gunma, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"4721","reference":[{"issue":"2","key":"i0020-8868-99-3-196-b01","series-title":"Cancer","first-page":"355","article-title":"Benign solitary schwannomas (neurilemomas)","volume":"24","author":"Das Gupta\n TK,","year":"1969","unstructured":"Das Gupta\n TK, \n \n Brasfield\n RD, \n \n Strong\n EW, \n \n Hajdu\n SI. \n \n Benign solitary schwannomas (neurilemomas).
