Agree with palisaded encapsulated neuroma (or, [i]solitary circumscribed neuroma[/i], for those who rightly complain that palisaded encapsulated neuromas are often neither...).

Subtle poorly formed Verocay bodies and scattered mast cells are present. Perfunctory differential would include schwannoma (unlikely) or neurofibroma (too circumscribed).

[i]Stanford Univ Surgical Pathology site has a succinct table of immunohistochemical and histologic features for differentiating PEN vs. schwannoma vs. NF:[/i]
