Yes
Schwannomas originate in the Schwann cells
Schwannomas are not strictly a brain or spinal tumor because they arise on peripheral nerves
Schwannomas grow very slowly, and many people adapt to the slight hearing loss and balance problems that are the tumors' earliest symptoms
A benign spindle cell neoplasm is a tumor that develops in connective tissue other than bone such as skeletal muscle, fat, tendon, fibrous tissue and nerve and blood vessel tissue. The most common benign soft tissue tumor is called a lipoma.
A Swanoma Tumor is a bundle of nerve cells The correct spelling is schwannoma. A schwannoma (sh-won-oma) is a tumor of the tissue covering nerves called the nerve sheath. These tumours develop from a type of cell called a Schwann cell, which gives them their name. Schwannomas are often not cancerous (benign). The commonest type of benign schwannoma is the acoustic neuroma. This can cause deafness because it grows on a nerve called the 8th cranial nerve, which controls hearing.

Uterine fibroids, or uterine leiomyoma, are benign tumors or benign neoplasms. (Neoplasm and tumor are synonymous; neoplasms can be benign or malignant. Fibroids are benign.)
benign tumor
benign means cancerous in most cases...ex. doctors will tell if a tumor is benign or not...if it is benign...it contains no cancer cells.....if it is not...then you get the idea..... Benign means non cancerous.
Luckily, the tumor was benign.
