Although solitary neurofibroma can affect the various subsites of the head and neck region, oropharyngeal neurofibroma is very rare and total five cases (four in the soft palate and one in the palatine tonsil) have been reported. Here we present a 42-year old female patient presented to the out patient department with respiratory obstruction and voice change for 3 months. Complete excision of the mass was achieved by endoscopic coablation and which was confirmed to be a neurofibroma.
虽然孤立性神经纤维瘤可累及头颈部的各个亚部位,但口咽神经纤维瘤非常罕见,迄今仅报道过5例(4例位于软腭,1例位于腭扁桃体)。本文报告1例42岁女性患者,因呼吸梗阻和声音改变3个月就诊于门诊。通过内镜下凝固术完整切除肿物,术后病理证实为神经纤维瘤。
