We report a case of solitary neurofibroma of the spermatic cord. Such benign tumors arise from perineural and Schwann cells and may be located in various parts of the body, but are rarely observed in the spermatic cord. No clinical or laboratorial manifestations of von Recklinghausen disease (Neurofibromatosis) were identified. Distinct criteria have been established for a diagnosis of von Recklinghausen disease, so that a solitary neurofibroma may not represent this complex. Only a little number of solitary neurofibromas of the spermatic cord are reported in the literature.
我们报告一例精索孤立性神经纤维瘤。此类良性肿瘤起源于神经周细胞和施万细胞，可位于身体的各个部位，但在精索中很少见。未发现冯雷克林霍增氏病（神经纤维瘤病）的临床或实验室表现。已确立了诊断冯雷克林霍增氏病的明确标准，因此孤立性神经纤维瘤可能并不代表这种复杂疾病。文献中仅报道了少数精索孤立性神经纤维瘤病例。
