Comments

This 36-year-old woman developed a dome shaped, skin colored papule on her left shoulder. Histologic findings were typical of a neurofibroma.

Description

Microscopic examination showed tumors of proliferating spindle cells with wavy nuclei. Mitotic figures and atypia were infrequently seen. The surrounding stroma was faintly eosinophilic.
