Özet
Neurofibromas are benign tumors arising from the peripheral nerve sheath. Neurofibromatosis type 1 is one of the most commonly seen autosomal dominant disorders which consists of multiple neurofibromas. Neurofibromas may rarely exist singly in people without neurofibromatosis type 1 at any location along the peripheral nervous system. Segmental neurofibromatosis is a rare form of neurofibromatosis in which skin lesions are limited to a region of the body. Here we report a patient of segmental neurofibromatosis who had multiple localized dermal neurofibromas on the lower limb with no other cutaneous or systemic findings. This is the first report of isolated segmental neurofibromatosis in confined to the posterior tibial nerve dermatome.
