title: [A case of solitary neurofibroma of spermatic cord].
abstract: We report a case of solitary neurofibroma of the spermatic cord. A 48-year-old man was referred to our hospital with a complaint of a left inguinal mass. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrated a solid mass in the left inguinal region. The tumor was removed. Histopathological diagnosis was neurofibloma. He had no other findings of Von Recklinghausen disease. Only a few cases of solitary neurofibromas of spermatic cord have been reported.
