The fibrous tissue of the LCA aneurysm showed high cytoplasmic expression of S-100 (× 40) (c). Neurofibroma from NF1 was seen around the vein and adipose tissue near the LCA. d, e The fibrous tissue around the vessels stained with hematoxylin and eosin (× 100). The orange arrowhead indicates vessels near the LCA (d). The fibrous tissue around the vessels showed high cytoplasmic expression of S-100 (× 100) (e)
