Figure 1 Histological features of the lesion.
Low- (A) and high (B)-power magnification of haematoxylin and eosin stained tissue sections of colorectal mucosa. A diffuse, Schwann cell proliferation in the lamina propria, which entraps colonic crypts is visible. Cytologically, the lesions are composed of uniform bland spindle cells with elongated nuclei, dense eosinophilic cytoplasm, and minimal intervening stroma with vague Verocay bodies.
