Abstract
Neurothekeomas are rare, benign connective tissue tumours probably of Schwann cell origin. We report an unusual case of a neurothekeoma involving the hand. Histological examination revealed characteristic myxoid nodules with spindle shaped cells. The immunocytochemical reaction for S-100 protein and neuron-specific enolase was positive. Complete excision proved curative as the tumour was well encapsulated.
