ABSTRACT

Neurofibromas are benign tumors originated of cellular elements of the neuroectodermal-neural crista and generally associated with neurofibromatosis. The presence of these lesions in the nipple-areolar complex is rare. The authors show a case report of neurofibromatosis with nipple-areolar complex neurofibromas and perform a review on the presentation, diagnosis and treatment of this pathology.
