 Plexiform neurofibromas represent an uncommon variant of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF–1) in which neurofibromas arise from multiple nerves as bulging and deforming masses involving also connective tissue and skin folds. The treatment is usually surgical if it is interfering with daily work. A case of solitary swelling over right forearm on anterio–lateral aspect extending to wrist in skin & subcutaneous plane clinically diagnosed as lipoma turned out to be plexiform neurofibroma. Plexiform neurifibromas are type of Neurofibromatosis Type1. Here we present a similar case of forearm Neurofibroma associated with restricted daily activity which needed surgical intervention.
