Abstract

We report an 82-year-old woman with a solitary neurofibroma occurring on the middle finger and nail deformity. Neurofibroma may present as multiple or solitary lesions. Although there is no predilection site of solitary lesion, the occurrence on hands is rare. We report a case of solitary neurofibroma on hand with typical histologic findings but not with pain, numbness and dysfunction.
