ABSTRACT
Neurogenic neoplasms of the facial nerve are uncommon. These neoplasms are usually classified into two types schwannoma and neurofibroma. Although intraparotid facial nerve schwannomas have been documented sporadically throughout the medical literature, neurofibromas from intraparotid facial nerve are extremely rare. Neurogenic neoplasms of the intraparotid facial nerve are usually diagnosed intraoperatively by tissue biopsy. The management of neurogenic tumors associated with normal facial function is a particularly difficult problem. These benign tumors of neurogenic origin should be considered in the differential diagnosis of parotid masses. This is a case report of a solitary neurofibroma involving the main trunk of the facial nerve in the parotid gland.
