Abstract
BACKGROUND: Neurofibroma can be a clinical manifestation of neurofibromatosis, which is a benign neurogenic tumor that occurs sporadically. Neurofibromas in the abdomen usually appear in the retroperitoneal space. Reports on neurofibromas in the abdominal wall are rare, and multiple recurrent neurofibromas in this area have not yet been reported.
CASE SUMMARY: This is a case of a 73-year-old man who suffered from multiple recurrent neurofibromas in the abdominal wall for 16 years and received 13 surgical treatments.
CONCLUSION: We need to pay due attention to its treatment, and primary surgery should be designed thoroughly.
