Abstract
There have been rarely described multiple neurilemoma in the literature. We report here two cases of multiple neurilemoma in peripheral nerves.
In case 1, three tumors were found in the tiblial nerve, the common peroneal nerve, and the muscle berry of the extensor digitorum longus which had no clear connection with the nerve bundle.
Case 2 had two tumors in the median nerve and the ulnar nerve.
The histological feature revealed both Antoni A type and B type neurilemoma.
At 14 months after operation in case 1 and 6 months in case 2, there is no neurological deficit and no recurrence.
