ABSTRACT

Neurothekeoma is a rare benign skin tumor that derives from the nerve sheath. Its etiopathogenesis is not yet well established. It occurs primarily in the upper body of children and young adults, with female predominance. In this article we present the case of a 35-year-old female patient with neurothekeoma on the forehead.
