    The author reports two cases of Bullous pemphigoid (BP) with neurofibroma (NF)-like histopathological change. The two patients without neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) presented with several bullae on their trunk. Based on the results of positivity for anti-BP180 antibody, direct immunofluorescence, and histopathological findings, they were diagnosed with BP. Histologically, another lesion in the dermis, which was composed of spindle cells with wavy nuclei, collagen fibers, and mast cells, was located close to the bulla. Immunohistochemically, the spindle cells were diffusely positive for S-100 protein and CD34, and weakly positive for epithelial membrane antigen in certain foci. These findings were considered to be "NF-like" histopathological change. This is the first two cases of BP with NF-like histopathological change in patients without NF1.

    Giant nerve sheath tumour is a rare tumour originating from the nerve sheath. It differs from the conventional nerve sheath tumour only by the size these tumours can reach. There are two main type of tumours that occur in the nerve sheath which include neurofibroma and schwannoma. The current views are that schwannomas arise from the progenitor of the schwann cell. Whereas the neurofibroma series probably arise from a mesenchymal origin closer to a fibroblast. We report on six cases of nerve sheath tumour that occur in the spinal and paraspinal region that presented to us over a 5 year period.
