Abstract:
We report two cases of segmental neurofibromatosis that developed in s. 33-year-old female and a 35-years-old female. The skin lesions situated on the right C3 and C4 dermatomes, and on the right C2 dermatome respectively. Biopsy specimen showed collagenous wavy fibrils among which spindle-shaped and round cells were embedded as seen in the typical neurofibroma. These cases were considered to be true segmental neurofibromstosis.
