ABSTRACT
Diffuse neurofibroma is an uncommon variant of neurofibroma that usually presents on the head and neck. It is common in children and young adults. Clinically, the lesion presents as large, poorly circumscribed swelling. A 25 year-old female presented with diffuse swelling on the occipital region of the scalp for several years. Magnetic resonance imaging showed 8x9 cm sized, ill defined infiltration on the occipital scalp. The histologic examination revealed unencapsulated loosely arranged spindle cells within the dermis and subcutaneous tissue. Meissnerian differentiation was observed within the tumor cells. The tumor cells were positive for S-100 protein. We report a case of diffuse neurofibroma on the occipital region of the scalp.
