Endoscopic En-Bloc Resection of Neurilemmoma of the Foot Dorsum.

Neurilemmoma (schwannoma) is a benign, slow-growing, encapsulated tumor originating from the Schwann cells of the peripheral nerve sheath. The purpose of this technical note is to describe the technique of endoscopic en-bloc resection of neurilemmoma of the foot dorsum. This has the advantage of better cosmetic result and less postoperative perineural fibrosis.
