title: Lipomatous neurofibromas with giant pigmented lesion.
abstract: Neurofibroma is the most common benign neural tumour. Among the large number of histopathological variants reported, lipomatous neurofibroma is exceedingly infrequent, and shows the presence of intratumoral adipocytes admixed with spindle cells in the dermis. We present a case of a 37-year-old man with lipomatous neurofibromas associated with a giant garment-like pigmented lesion involving his lower trunk and right thigh.
