Intraneural perineurioma is a neoplasm of perineurial cells, corresponding to WHO grade I. We present a case of intraneural perineurioma affecting multiple nerves, which usually involved one or two of major nerve trunks in one patient. We describe the clinical presentation, magnetic resonance (MR) neurography characteristics, and pathological characteristics. The differential diagnosis with other diseases, such as neurofibroma, Schwannomatosis and HNPP, will also be discussed. We also review the literature in efforts to highlight recent studies on intraneural perineurioma and heighten and awareness for the possible presentations of this disorder.

Objective: The objective of this study was to assess the utility of narrow-band imaging (NBI) for improving intraneural dissection during gross total resection of head and neck schwannoma. Specifically, we aimed to quantitatively evaluate whether NBI can enhance the identification of pseudocapsule and true capsule within the tumor.
Methods: Nine schwannoma surgery cases conducted between February 2018 and October 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.

The chapter is focused on the neoplastic peripheral nerve lesions, which primarily involve "cranial and paraspinal nerves," as outlined in the CNS volume (WHO_Classification_of_Tumours_Editorial_Board, 2021). These include classic peripheral nerve sheath tumors such as schwannoma, neurofibroma, intraneural perineurioma, and malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors, with their variants as well as new and more precisely defined entities, including hybrid nerve sheath tumors and malignant melanotic nerve sheath tumor (previously melanotic schwannoma).

Diagnosis of desmoid-type fibromatosis (DF) may be challenging on biopsy due to morphologic overlap with reactive fibrosis (scar) and other uniform spindle cell neoplasms. Evaluation of nuclear β-catenin, a surrogate of Wnt pathway activation, is often difficult in DF due to weak nuclear expression and high background membranous/cytoplasmic staining. Lymphoid enhancer-factor 1 (LEF1) is a recently characterized effector partner of β-catenin which activates the transcription of target genes.

Background: Intraneural perineurioma is a rare, benign slow-growing lesion that usually involves a single main trunk nerve during childhood and young adulthood. The treatment of intraneural perineurioma is still a subject of controversy, especially in fast-growing children. To date, there was no systemic analysis of intraneural perineurioma in children.

Intraneural perineurioma is an exceptionally rare neoplasm in animals. This case study comprises a series of three cases and a brief literature review focusing on canine intraneural perineurioma. The pathological and immunohistochemical findings are documented, revealing that canine intraneural perineurioma frequently affects adult dogs aged between 3 and 10 years old, with a male predominance.
