QUESTION

“Varocay bodies” are seen in?

OPTIONS

(A) Meningioma
(B) Schwannoma
(C) Neuroblastoma
(D) Glioma

ANSWER

(B) Schwannoma

EXPLANATION

Verocay bodies are characteristic microscopic structures of schwannoma and consist of palisading Schwann-cell nuclei arranged around anuclear zones, forming the classic Antoni A pattern. Meningioma, neuroblastoma, and glioma do not characteristically contain Verocay bodies. Thus, option B is correct.
