Zusammenfassung:Solitary neurofibroma of male reproductive system is a very rare benign peripheral nerve tumor. The literature data of 17 cases showed that most of the patients went to see a doctor because of the local painless enlargement of the reproductive system. We report a case of testicular neurofibromatosis diagnosed as enlargement of the scrotum and rupture of pus. After comprehensive consideration, the patients were given radical orchiectomy on the right side. This case report is helpful to the understanding of this rare tumor. Solitary neurofibromatosis of the reproductive system can also cause local infection and collapse, and we need to distinguish it from malignant tumors.
