Abstract
Neurofibromas are peripheral nerve sheath neoplasms usually benign but can undergo
malignant transformation when associated with NF-1. We are reporting a case of orbital plexiform neurofibroma in an 11-month-old boy who presented with a painless, gradually increasing bluish lump on right upper eyelid since birth, which had a “bag of worms” consistency and slight proptosis of right eye. CT scan and MRI of brain & orbit were done to make the diagnosis.
