Özet

Solitary neurofibroma unassociated with neurofibromatosis type I (NFI) arising within the scrotum is an extremely rare benign tumor. There are 8 cases reported in the literature with only 1 that occurred in childhood. In the current report the authors describe an additional adolescent patient, the second case encountered in childhood and the ninth case reported in the literature, together with a review of the related articles.
