title: Tumor-to-tumor metastasis of breast carcinoma to cervical spinal schwannoma: Case report.
abstract: Tumor-to-tumor metastasis with schwannoma as a recipient tumor is very rare. There have been no reports on tumor to spinal schwannoma metastasis. We report a case of a 57-year-old woman who presented with neck pain and who turned out to have cervical spinal nerve schwannoma with breast carcinoma metastasis.
