Intraneural lipomatous tumors are rare lesions that mostly affect the upper extremities. These slowly growing tumors can have a serious neurological and functional impact when they reach a significantly large size. We report herein a case of a 53-year-old female who presented with a large median nerve intraneural lipomatous tumor causing compression-related signs. She was treated with monoblock excision of the tumor that was completely residing between the median nerve fibers. At her last follow-up, no median nerve deficits were recorded, and the patient went to full resolution.
神经内脂肪瘤是一种罕见的病变，主要影响上肢。这些生长缓慢的肿瘤在显著增大时可产生严重的神经学和功能影响。我们在此报告一例53岁女性患者，其患有一个巨大的正中神经内脂肪瘤，导致了与压迫相关的体征。她接受了肿瘤整块切除术，该肿瘤完全位于正中神经纤维之间。在她的最后一次随访中，未记录到正中神经功能缺损，患者完全康复。
