Abstract

Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs) are rare soft tissue neoplasms, which occur in isolation or due to the malignant transformation of benign neurofibroma. Conventional features of MPNST are very well described. We intend to present diffusion tractography findings in a case of MPNST.
