Dr Anjali Vinod, Dr. Suchit Roy B R

Abstract: This paper presents a unique case of an isolated neurofibroma in the soft palate, a rare occurrence not associated with systemic pathologies such as Von Recklinghausens disease or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia. This case, the sixth of its kind reported in English literature, involve a 42-year old male patient who underwent successful surgical excision of the tumour. The patient has remained stable post-surgery, with no signs of recurrence or systemic involvement. This case study contributes to the limited body of knowledge on isolated neurofibroma of the soft palate and underscored the importance of considering such rare diagnoses.
