Classically, schwannomas show a biphasic pattern of streaming fascicles of spindle cells intermixed with regions of loosely textured, haphazardly arranged myxoid areas. Our case is composed of a predominately cellular, spindled component with focal, relatively less cellular and myxomatous areas as seen in the right lower corner of the image.
