I recently had a schwanoma tumor removed from my left hand. I have been unable to find out as to the cause of this tumor. I am a healty young male and have no family history of cancer. The doctor who removed it was ver excited and after the opperation told me that he wish he had had his camera with him. I am very curious and somewhat concerned about development of more of these tumors.
