Abstract:
Myxoid neurofibroma is a benign tumor of perineural cell origin, which is demonstrated with a positive immunohistochemical stainig for S-100. The most common locations of the myxoid neurofibroma are face, shoulder, arm, periungual and foot. We experienced an unusual case of myxoid neurofibroma which originated from labia majora area then reported it. To our knowledge, this is the first time that a labia majora location is reported.
