ABSTRACT
Benign peripheral nerve tumors encompass a wide range of neoplasms and non-neoplastic tumor like lesions. Some of these lesions if not encountered in the setting of genetic syndromes, are occurring sporadically. The principles of oncology should be respectfully followed in every step of diagnostic approach and surgical management. Albeit, classified as benign, some of them do have different level of malignant potential, thus the treating physicians should be aware of that to avoid possible pitfalls with devastating outcomes. This article reviews the most common benign peripheral nerve tumors discussing the clinicopathological findings, imaging appearance and the current trend in their approach.
