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.

Plexiform neurobroma is a rare benign nerve sheath tumor that develops in the perineurium and is often considered pathognomonic of neurobromatosis type 1 (NF1 or von Recklinghausen disease). They occur most frequently in the craniomaxillofacial region, rarely on back and extremities. These lesions are highly vascular and there is 15-20% potential for malignant transformation. Here, we present a 26-year-old female with neurobromatosis all over her body, but with a large plexiform neurobroma in the sacral region which was causing difculty in sitting and lying supine as well as disgurement of the gluteal region. Surgical excision with primary closure of the swelling was done. Histopathology ndings were consistent with neurobromatosis.
