A Rare Entity of S100(−)/cluster of Differentiation 68(+) Jaw Myxoid-Cellular Neurothekeoma: A Case Report and Literature Review

A Rare Entity of S100(−)/cluster of Differentiation 68(+) Jaw Myxoid-Cellular Neurothekeoma: A Case Report and Literature Review

Neurothekeomas are rare, benign soft tissue tumors with fairly distinctive histomorphological features. They arise from the nerve sheath (nerve sheath myxoma/myxoid type) or fibrohistiocytic matrix (cellular type) and commonly involve the face, neck, and upper extremities in young adults. We report...
