Dr Priya Bulchandani, Dr Tushar Palve

Abstract


Neurofibroma is a disease of peripheral nervous system that involves most commonly the extremities. Amongst female genital tract, neurofibroma involves most commonly the vulva, clitoris and labia but rarely may be seen in vagina, cervix, endometrium and myometrium as well as urinary tract. Isolated neurofibroma of vagina is a rare association which is usually a part of Von Recklinghausen’s disease. We present here a rare clinical entity of vulval neurofibroma in a 52-year-old female with no other features of Von Recklinghausen’s disease. The mass was excised surgically and sent for histopathological examination which confirmed the diagnosis
