The Right

Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by the formation of benign nerve sheath tumours known as neurofibromas. A 28-year-old female presented with a large neurofibroma extending from the elbow of the right arm into the axilla and across the right breast. A mastectomy was performed to excise 4 kg of tissue with an immediate flap reconstruction. Post-operatively, the patient’s hemoglobin levels dropped significantly due to excessive blood loss, but the patient was discharged by post-operative day 5 with no additional complications. This study raises awareness for NF1, describes possible complications that may arise following excision of highly vascularized neurofibromas, and outlines possible techniques for breast reconstruction.

We report a rare case of giant plexiform neurofibroma in a patient affected by type-1 neurofibromatosis and we describe the correct surgical management of such lesions in order to avoid intra- and post-op blood loss related complications.

Common Benign Tumour

Neurobroma is a common benign tumour occurring as part of an autosomal dominant disorder, neurobromatosis type 1, leading to the formation of benign tumours or neurobromas of the peripheral nervous system. Large neurobromas of the brachial plexus are rare and present a difcult challenge for surgeon due to the anatomical complexity of the brachial plexus. Dermal neurobromas usually present with swelling and occasional pain, but neurobromas associated with the brachial plexus present with pain and neurological symptoms. These plexiform neurobromas of the brachial plexus are known to undergo malignant transformation. Here, we present a case of a large plexiform neurobroma affecting the left brachial plexus and extending till the elbow, conrmed with MRI and surgical debulking was done.
