Neurofibroma of the Common Bile Duct

Abstract

A case of solitary neurofibroma of the common bile duct is presented. A review of the world literature reveals only one previously reported case of solitary neurofibroma in this location. Rare case reports of neurofibroma in association with von Recklinghausen's disease (neurofibromatosis 1) located in the hepatobiliary system are found. Discussion of traumatic neuroma, another clinically and histologically confusing entity occurring in the biliary system, is also included. Int J Surg Pathol 4(4): [245][246][247][248] 1997
