Abstract
We report the case of a large sporadic neurofibroma arising in the palm of the 40 year old nurse. Isolated neurofibroma in the hand are rare and pose both diagnostic and treatment challenges for the surgeon. Preoperative imaging can be useful to delineate the anatomical relationships of a soft tissue lesion but is not always diagnostic. The key points in the management of these tumours are discussed.
