Solitary Non Syndromic Oral Plexiform Neurofibroma: a Case Report and Review of Literature
In oral cavity neurogenic tumors are rare, especially if they are malignant. Neurofibromas are the benign tumors of nerve sheath origin involving multiple nerve fascicles of the smaller branches of peripheral nerves. They may present as solitary lesions or as a part of generalized syndrome of neurof...

description | In oral cavity neurogenic tumors are rare, especially if they are malignant. Neurofibromas are the benign tumors of nerve sheath origin involving multiple nerve fascicles of the smaller branches of peripheral nerves. They may present as solitary lesions or as a part of generalized syndrome of neurofibromatosis also known as von Recklinghausen’s disease (VRD) or very rarely as multiple neurofibromas without VRD. Oral solitary neurofibromas are not uncommon, but histologically plexiform variant is a rare form. This article describes a case of oral solitary plexiform neurofibroma with a review of literature. |
