Résumé
Peripheral nerve tumors of the median nerve are uncommon. We present a case of a large atypical intraneural perineurioma of the median nerve. In our case, a 27-year-old man with a history of Asperger's and Autism who was diagnosed with a lipofibromatous hamartoma of the median nerve after a biopsy and treated conservatively presented to clinic due to the slowly growing size of his lesion. He was treated with excision of the lesion with associated resection of healthy median nerve and extensor indicis pollicis oppponenplasty. The pathology of the excision reported the lesion as an intraneural perineurioma instead of a lipofibromatous hamartoma perhaps presenting evidence of a reactive process.
