Repeated haemorrhages in peripheral nerve sheath tumours of the salivary glands after minor injury. Issue 7 (September 2017) - Kondo, S.
Abstract: Repeated haemorrhages in peripheral nerve sheath tumours of the salivary glands are rare. We report the case of a patient with neurofibromatosis type 1 who had two episodes of massive haemorrhage in his right parotid gland the day after a minor injury. Oral and maxillofacial surgeons should be aware that vasculopathy may occur in patients with these tumours.
