Ultrasound Imaging for Preoperative Assessment of Schwannomas in the Palm: A Case Report
Peripheral nerve sheath tumors of the hand are rare occurrences. Among them, schwannomas are benign tumors originating from peripheral nerves. In this case report, we presented a patient with schwannomas in the palm, examined using ultrasound for preoperative assessment and was confirmed by pathological specimen. By highlighting the utility of ultrasound in detecting this condition, we aimed to enrich existing literature and ultimately enhance patient outcomes.
