Nerve tumors are of the order of 5% of tumors of the hand, neurofibroma and schwanoma are the most frequent. Fibrolipoma is a rare benign tumor that develops at the expense of peripheral nerves of unknown origin. macroscopically, it appears in the form of a lobulated formation with a double fatty and tissue component. Microscopically, this tumor is characterized by the presence of adipose and connective tissue infiltrating the envelopes of the nerve. surgical management involves microsurgical procedures. We report the observation of an 8-year-old patient with no particular pathological history, was referred to our department with slowly growing mass on the palmar surface of the left hand and who have been diagnosed with neurofibroma of the median nerve by imaging.
