case_images: Biopsy revealed presence of malignant Schwannoma (Figure 1). A wide local excision of the tumor, the periosteum and the outer table of the bone was done (Figure 1). One month after the initial surgery, the wound was closed with a large bipedicle bucket handle flap from the parieto-occiptal scalp region (Figure 1). There was some graft loss on the donor area and hence the patient was again scheduled for skin grafting of the donor area after two months (Figure 1).
