Table 3 Histologic features and immunohistochemical findings of reported colonic malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor
| Ref. | Histologic features | Immunohistochemical findings |
| Present case | The tumor showed a biphasic morphology composed of spindle cells arranged in fascicles and small round cells distributed diffusely, set in a vascular-rich stroma with extensive myxoid change | S-100 (+); AE1/AE3 (-); SMA (-); Desmin (-); GFAP (-); NKX2.2 (-); FLI1 (-); SOX10 (-); CD117 (-); CD34 positive only in vascular structures; complete loss of H3K27me3; Ki-67 approximately 90% |
| Rawal et al[4] | Predominantly composed of spindle cell fascicles | S-100 (+); CD117 (-); DOG1 (-); CD34 (-) |
| Cyriac et al[5] | Composed of spindle cells and epithelioid cells | S-100 (+); Vimentin (+); HMB45 (-); CD117 (-); DOG1 (-) |
| Lee et al[6] | Predominantly composed of spindle cell fascicles | S-100 (+); Vimentin (+); AE1/AE3 (-); Desmin (-); Myosin (-); Ki-67 5%-10% |
| Marwah et al[7] | Predominantly composed of spindle cell fascicles | S-100 (+); CD117 (-); NSE (-); Ki-67 approximately 20% |
| Al-Shehari et al[8] | Predominantly composed of spindle cell fascicles | S-100 (+); SOX10 (+); CD117 (-); CD34 (-); DOG1 (-); SMA (-); Ki-67 10% |
| Lakkasani et al[9] | Composed of spindle cell fascicles and pleomorphic cells, with focal rhabdomyoblastic differentiation | S-100 (+); Ki-67 approximately 70% |
