Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Pharmacy (IOSRPHR) - Year 2015, Vol 5, Issue 11
Abstract
Nervous fibrolipomatous hamartoma is said to be a rare tumor-like condition involving the peripheral nerves,in which the epineurium and perineurium are enlarged and distorted by excess of fatty and fibrous tissue s that infiltrate between and around nerve boundaries. The median nerve is more likely to develop a hamartoma than other nerves with a predilection for the carpal tunnel. A fibrolipomatous hamartoma – is a rare, benign, congenital lesion most commonly found in the median nerve, usually at the level of the wrist or hand. We report a case of this rare condition in ulnar nerve.
