title: Diffuse infiltrative neurofibroma: a clinical, radiological, and histological conundrum.
abstract: Diffuse infiltrative neurofibroma is a rare clinical entity that can pose a diagnostic challenge not only due to its rarity but also due to its varied clinical, radiological, and histological features. Our case illustrates how this entity may be misdiagnosed on clinical and pathological examination. Radiological imaging plays a critical and collaborative role in guiding clinicians and pathologists when faced with this challenging diagnosis.
