Abstract
The isolated presence of neurofibromatous lesions in the gastrointestinal tract, without any associated systemic syndromes, is a rarely reported clinical entity.
A 25-year-old lady, without any history of neurofibromatosis or other systemic diseases, presented with small bowel obstruction secondary to band formation induced by an isolated mysentric neurofibromatous mass. The patient underwent exploratory laparotomy with release of the band and removal of the mass.
Isolated mysentric neurofibroma is a rare pathological entity. The clinical significance of such a diagnosis lies mainly in the need of further follow up of these patients as the bowel involvement could be the first manifestation of neurofibromatosis type 1 or multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2b.
