Abstract
Spontaneous cardiac neoplasms were diagnosed in one Sprague-Dawley and seven Fischer 344 rats ranging in age from eight months to two years. All eight neoplasms were diagnosed as neurilemmomas. One neoplasm was composed of dense Antoni type A tissue with Verocay body formation, while seven others were composed principally of loose Antoni type B tissue. No specific site predilection was found.Keywords
