"Another acceptable term of hybrid nerve sheath tumour is ‘benign nerve sheath tumour NOS’."

Line 8:62 · Generally, don't use bold in text: '<strong>benign nerve sheath tumour NOS</strong>'

"Hybrid nerve sheath tumours are generally rare and tumours showing a hybrid morphology of schwannoma/perineurioma or neurofibroma/schwannoma are more common than the neurofibroma/perineurioma hybrid. They have been found in a wide age range but seem to have a peak in young adults. There is apparently no gender predilection ^1-3."

"Associations"

Line 23:1 · "Associations" is under the wrong parent heading (found under "Pathology").

Oxford Comma

suggestion

"schwannoma + neurofibroma (usually in the setting of NF1, NF2 or schwannomatosis)"

Line 4:78 · Use the Oxford comma in 'NF1, NF2 or schwannomatosis'.

"form, location and size"

Line 66:8 · Use the Oxford comma in 'form, location and size'.

There Is

suggestion

"Hybrid nerve sheath tumours are generally rare and tumours showing a hybrid morphology of schwannoma/perineurioma or neurofibroma/schwannoma are more common than the neurofibroma/perineurioma hybrid. They have been found in a wide age range but seem to have a peak in young adults. There is apparently no gender predilection ^1-3."

Line 10:303 · Don't start a sentence with 'There is'.

Commas

suggestion

"Schwann cells generally react to S100, perineurial areas usually demonstrate positivity for epithelial membrane antigen (EMA), claudin 1 or Glut1 but not S100, whereas neurofibromatous components display a mixed picture of CD34, S100, SOX10, and EMA positivity ^1-3."

Line 59:48 · More than 5 commas in a single sentence might make it more difficult to read.
