Diffuse neurofibroma on the lower back.
Diffuse neurofibroma is an uncommon form of neurofibroma, which occurs principally in children and young adults. This tumor presents most often in the head and neck region. We have seen a young girl with a diffuse neurofibroma on the lower back that was successfully excised.
