Plexiform neurofibromatosis is almost invariably associated with neurofibromatosis type I. A case of an isolated back plexiform neurofibroma, initially thought to be a lipoma, is presented, with emphasis on the importance of eliciting family history in reaching a diagnosis of neurofibromatosis. Currently, surgical resection is still the treatment of choice though a management plan is not well defined. Patients need appropriate regular follow-up to detect malignancy or early recurrence.
丛状神经纤维瘤几乎总是与Ⅰ型神经纤维瘤病相关。本文报告了一例孤立性背部丛状神经纤维瘤病例，该病例最初被误诊为脂肪瘤，强调了在诊断神经纤维瘤病时询问家族史的重要性。目前，手术切除仍是首选治疗方法，尽管治疗方案尚未明确界定。患者需要定期进行适当的随访，以检测是否发生恶变或早期复发。
