Abstract

Solitary neurofibroma is a rare, benign tumor of the peripheral nerve sheath, and is often associated with neurofibromatosis type 1. Herein, a case of palpebral tarsal solitary neurofibroma in a patient without neurofibromatosis is presented, with a review of the literature. A 68-year-old man presented with a subcutaneous mass in the right upper eyelid of 6 months’ duration. Eversion of the eyelid revealed a round, reddish mass on the lateral part of the tarsal plate which measured 12x8 mm in size. The lesion was excised with its tarsal base, diagnosed histologically, and did not recur during a follow-up of 34 months. Isolated, solitary neurofibroma of the eyelid has been reported in a total of 7 cases, including the case presented herein. The tumors arose from the eyelid margin in 4 cases, from the tarsal plate in 2 cases, and from the supratarsal conjunctiva in 1 case. The tumor did not recur after surgical excision in 5 cases for which follow-up data were available

Özet

Soliter nörofibroma, periferik sinir kılıfının seyrek, selim bir tümörüdür, sıklıkla nörofibromatozis tip 1 ile birlikte görülür. Burada,nörofibromatozisi olmayan bir hastadaki göz kapağı tarsal soliter nörofibromu ilgili literatürle birlikte sunulmaktadır. Altmış sekizyaşında erkek hasta, 6 aydır sağ üst göz kapağında deri altında bir kitle olmasıyla başvurdu. Göz kapağının çevrilmesi tarsusun lateralkısmında, 12x8 mm çapında, yuvarlak, kırmızı bir kitleyi ortaya çıkardı. Lezyon tarsal tabanıyla birlikte eksize edildi, histolojik tanısıkondu ve 34 aylık izlem sırasında nüksetmedi. Göz kapağının izole, soliter nörofibromu, burada sunulan olguyla birlikte, toplam 7olguda bildirilmiştir. Tümör 4 olguda kapak kenarından, 2 olguda tarsal plaktan, 1 olguda ise supratarsal konjonktivadan çıkmıştır.Postoperatif izlemi olan 5 olguda, cerrahi eksizyondan sonra tümör nüksetmemiştir
