Peripheral Nerves are vital to the function of the human body. Nerves and the sheath that lines them can become neoplastic leading to the formation of tumors. In the previous episode we discussed the benign tumors that arise from peripheral nerves, this episode will focus on the malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNST). These tumors are associated with a high local recurrence rate and can be problematic to treat. We discuss the diagnosis, management and treatment of MPNST.
