Solitary neurofibromas are rare occurrence in salivary gland region as well as mons pubis of females. We present two cases of teenage girls with swelling in parotid region and mons pubis. Fine needle aspiration cytology was inconclusive in both cases. They were both managed surgically and a diagnosis of neurofibroma was ascertained histopathologically and also confirmed with S-100 immunohistochemistry. The patients were followed up for a period of six months, however, no recurrence was noted. Though, one patient had a previous history of recurrence. We report these cases in view of their rarity of site and age as well as no correlation with neurofibromatosis and clitoromegaly.
