Abstract
Schwannomas are the most common benign tumors of peripheral nerves, typically presenting as solitary, slow-growing lesions. Multiple schwannomas are rare and may indicate underlying syndromic conditions. We report a 68-year-old woman presenting with multiple upper limb nodules. MRI revealed well-defined lesions with T1 isointensity, T2 hyperintensity, and heterogeneous gadolinium enhancement. Surgical excision confirmed benign schwannoma. MRI is essential for evaluation, but histopathological confirmation remains mandatory.
