ABSTRACT
In neurofibroma, not only schwann cells but also perineural cell, endoneural cells, and fibroblastoid cells create the tumor mass. Simple, isolated neurofibroma are common in the skin but rare in the eye. Simple isolated neurofibroma of the eye are common in the superior orbit, and a case with an isolated neurofibroma of the orbit and maxillary antrum has been reported. The authors have experienced a 57-year-old male patient who complained exophthalmos on his left eye for 2 years. The neurofibroma of the orbit and pterygopalatine fossa was confirmed and reported with a review of literature.
