Abstract

Giant neurofibromas represent a rare and striking form of benign nerve sheath tumors arising from peripheral nerves. Their gluteal localization is exceptional and presents a dual challenge: surgical, due to their rich vascularization and diffuse infiltration, and psychological, because of the significant deformity they induce. We report the case of a bilateral giant gluteal neurofibroma in a patient with type 1 neurofibromatosis, surgically managed in our department.
