Neurofibromas are benign tumours of the
nerve sheath. Histologically they vary depending on
their contents of cells, myxoid stroma and collagen. A
41-year old male with radicular pain had a tumour
involving the posterior chest wall. Microscopically it
resulted to be a neurofibroma with abundant psammoma
bodies. Although these bodies are very frequent in some
neoplasias, to our knowledge they have not been
described in neurofibromas to date.
