Neurofibroma
Neurofibroma is a type of tumor that develops from nerve tissue. It is typically a benign growth and is commonly associated with neurofibromatosis, a genetic disorder. Neurofibromas can occur anywhere in the body, including the skin, nerves, and organs. They often appear as soft, rubbery nodules or bumps on or under the skin. Treatment for neurofibromas may involve surgical removal if the tumor is causing symptoms, growing rapidly, or affecting surrounding structures. In some cases, medication or radiation therapy may be used to manage symptoms or reduce tumor size. Regular monitoring and follow-up are necessary to monitor the growth and potential complications associated with neurofibromas. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment plan for neurofibromas.
