识别隐约的栅栏状排列
有 Verocay 小体时当然很好,但有一部分神经鞘瘤没有 Verocay 小体。不过只要多找一找,通常能发现一些隐约、模糊的核栅栏状排列区。这些不明显的栅栏灶也许不如经典 Verocay 小体那种完美平行的醒目栅栏好看,但识别它们能帮助你得出正确诊断。学会识别隐约栅栏需要时间和练习,但非常值得。要寻找的是:细胞核大致聚集成一条模糊的线,旁边是粉染、细胞较少的区带。有时这些平行排列的模糊栅栏会弯曲、成簇,或者不呈直线。刚开始你可能得眯起眼睛,甚至有点「脑补」,但慢慢地这些不明显的区域就会凸显出来(识别隐约栅栏对发现神经鞘瘤以外的其他病变也有用,例如梭形细胞/多形性脂肪瘤及相关病变)。
我把其中几张图复制了一份,并在(至少在我看来)呈模糊栅栏状的区域两侧加了绿线。试着在标注图和原图之间来回切换,看看栅栏是否开始显现出来。
这些图中还有其他栅栏状区域……我只标出了最典型的几处。我还在部分图上标了 A 和 B,用来指出 Antoni A 区和 Antoni B 区。
请注意随机分布的核异型(散在深染、多形性细胞核)。大多数神经鞘瘤都会有一定程度的核异型,但在像本例这样的陈旧性神经鞘瘤中尤为显著。

- Jerad Gardner’s KiKo soft tissue teaching post (shared again on X on 30 October 2026) with 8 images, several duplicated with green lines and A/B labels for comparison with the originals.
- A subset of schwannomas lack Verocay bodies, but subtle palisading can usually be found: nuclei clustered in a vague line with adjacent pink, less cellular zones, sometimes curved, clustered or not straight.
- Recognizing subtle palisading also helps with other entities such as spindle cell/pleomorphic lipoma.
- Note the random nuclear atypia (scattered hyperchromatic pleomorphic nuclei): present to some extent in most schwannomas, especially dramatic in an ancient schwannoma like this one.
Scope: the full KiKo post with its 8 images and resource links. The original images have no captions; captions were added by this site based on the post text. Videos and the digital slide are available via the links.

Recognizing subtle palisading
Verocay bodies are great when you have them, but a subset of schwannomas do not. However, if you look around a bit, you can usually find subtle areas of vague nuclear palisading. These foci of subtle palisading may not be as aesthetically pleasing as the dramatic perfectly parallel palisading seen in classic Verocay bodies, but recognizing these subtle areas can help you arrive at the correct diagnosis. Learning to recognize the subtle palisading takes time and practice, but it's well worth the effort. Look for nuclei that are clustered together in a vague line with adjacent zones of pink with lower cellularity. Sometimes these parallel arrays of vague palisading may be curved or clustered or otherwise not in a straight line. You may have to squint your eyes and even hallucinate a bit at first, but eventually, these subtle areas will start to stand out (recognizing subtle palisading is also useful for picking up on other entities aside from schwannoma, such as spindle cell/pleomorphic lipoma and related entities).
I've duplicated a few of the images and added green lines flanking the areas that are vaguely palisaded (to my eye, at least). Try to flip back and forth between the annotated image and the original image and see if the palisades begin to stand out.
There are other areas in these images that are also palisaded...I've just highlighted some of the best ones. I've also added A and B to some of the images to point out the Antoni A and Antoni B areas.
Notice the random nuclear atypia (scattered hyperchromatic pleomorphic nuclei). This is present in most schwannomas to some extent, but it's especially dramatic in a case of ancient schwannoma like this one.
