# A cellular schwannoma of the nasal septum: a case report

## TL;DR

A rare case of cellular schwannoma in a child's nasal septum was successfully treated with surgery and shows no recurrence.

## Contribution

Reports a rare case of cellular schwannoma originating from the nasal septum in a pediatric patient.

## Key findings

- Cellular schwannoma was confirmed through pathological examination and S-100 protein immunoreactivity.
- The patient remained tumor-free for 10 months post-surgery.
- The tumor was successfully removed via a trans-nasal surgical approach.

## Abstract

Cellular schwannoma is a benign variant of classic schwannomas. It is an extremely rare condition to be derived from nasal septum.

a cellular schwannoma of the nasal septum is described in a 10-year-old Sudanese girl presented with nasal obstruction. The tumor was treated surgically by a trans-nasal approach. Pathological examination of the resected tumor showed cellular schwannoma. The tumor cells were immunoreactive for S-100 protein. The patient has been doing well for 10 months with no evidence of tumor recurrence.
