Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Innovative Research (IJMSIR) - Year 2019, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
A 30 Yrs female patient presenting initially to gynecologist for left ovarian mass and bilateral sciatica but on further investigations it had been proved to be a big pelvic neurofibroma .Surgical excision had been done without any complications. We aim to discuss the manifestations of neurofibromatosis and why lack of some findings in the current case with the role of neuroimaging in diagnosis of the case. Keyword- Neurofibroma, Ovarian cancer, ganglion. Introduction Various types of neurogenic tumors can affect the abdomen and pelvis. These tumors can be classified as being of ganglion cell origin (ganglioneuromas, ganglioneuroblast-omas, neuroblastomas), paraganglionic system origin (pheochromocytomas, paragangliomas), or nerve sheath origin (neurilemmomas, neurofibromas, neurofibromatosis, malignant nerve sheath tumors) 1 . These neurogenic tumors usually follow the distribution of the sympathetic ganglia along paraspinal areas or arise from the adrenal medulla or the organ of Zuckerkandl. Occasionally, however, other sites (eg, urinary bladder, bowel wall, abdominal wall, gallbladder) can be involved 2. The urinary bladder is an unusual site of involvement because the trigone of the bladder contains cells of neural crest origin.
