Abstract. The present report describes a plexiform schwannoma involving the subcutis of the foot in an 8-year-old boy. Gross findings revealed thin fibrous septa in a multilobulated tumor that was partly separated into free body-like nodules in the subcutis. Preoperative CT and MRI failed to delineate this multinodular architecture or free bodies. This is a case presentation including the CT and MR findings associated with plexiform schwannoma.
