Schwannoma originates in the Schwann cells of the neural plexus within the gastrointestinal tract and is most often located in the upper and middle oesophagus. The immunohistochemical profile gives the definitive diagnosis and is mainly characterised by a strong positivity for the S-100 protein, vimentin and glial fibrillary acidic protein.
