Abstract
Background. Schwannomas are nerve sheath neoplasms that form from Schwann cells. These tumors are normally found as a solitary, painless, slow-growing mass of varied size, and they are usually asymptomatic. The uterine cervix is an exceptionally unusual place of occurrence in the female genital system, and schwannomas are infrequent in this area. The purpose of this case report was to contribute to the growing body of knowledge regarding a rare site of schwannomas incidence and its subsequent implications during a normal and physiologic pregnancy. Case presentation. A 37-year-old lady 0
