Cellular neurothekeoma is distinguished from conventional neurothekeoma by increased cellularity, a lack of myxoid stroma, and a lack of neural expression with immunohistochemical stains.

Accurate diagnosis of these lesions is essential, as they can be mistaken for malignancy leading to unnecessary treatment.
