Lettre à l'éditeur
Résumé : | The authors report a case of simultaneously occurring neurofibroma and schwannoma of the sciatic nerve and discuss the complementary aspects of MR and US. The schwannoma was well-defined and showed distal enhancement on sonographic evaluation, whereas the neurofibroma was ill-defined; both tumors were hypoechoic. T1- and T2-weighted MR images revealed similar signal characteristics of the two tumors, but intense enhancement following administration of gadolinium-DTPA distinguished the schwannoma from the neurofibroma. |
