Comments:
Introduction: Neurofibroma is a benign peripheral nerve sheath tumor that may be sporadic (majority of cases) or associatied with Neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1). The sporadic cases occur as a solitary, localized fusiform expansion of the nerve and are located in the dermis or subcutis. This intraoperative photograph shows a localized neurofibroma arising in sural nerve.
