Overview
Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST) is a form of cancer of the connective tissue surrounding nerves.
Classification
There is no classification system established for malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor.
Pathophysiology
On gross pathology, a large firm mass with necrosis and hemorrhage is the characteristic finding of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor. On microscopic histopathological analysis, spindle cells, nuclear atypia, mitoses, and herring bone pattern are characteristic findings of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor.[1] Neurofibromatosis type I (NF1) gene is involved in the pathogenesis of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor.[2]
Causes
Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor may be caused by a mutation on neurofibromatosis type I gene.[3][4]
Differential Diagnosis
Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor must be differentiated from neurofibroma and schwannoma.[5]
Epidemiology and Demographics
The incidence of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor is approximately 0.1 per 100,000 individuals worldwide.[6] The incidence of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor increases with age.[6] Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor affects men and women equally.[7]
Risk Factors
Common risk factors in the development of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor are pre-existing plexiform neurofibromas, pre-existing perineuriomas, radiation therapy, and neurofibromatosis type 1.[8][9][10]
Screening
According to the the U.S. Preventive Service Task Force (USPSTF), there is insufficient evidence to recommend routine screening for Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor.[11]
Complication and prognosis
Common complication of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor is metastasis. Prognosis is generally poor.[12]
