Abstract
A rare case of hypoglossal neurofibroma was reported in a 47-year-old female. Her chief complaints concerned pain in the right temporal region and swelling in the right subaural region. A CT scan revealed an enhanced tumor mass in the right parapharyngeal space. The tumor was removed using an extracervical approach. The tumor involved the hypoglos sal nerve. The histological diagnosis was neurofibroma. Postoperatively, she developed right hemilingual paralysis and an incomplete palsy of the right vocal cord.
