Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNST) are the deadliest cancer that arises in individuals diagnosed with neurofibromatosis and account for nearly 5% of the 15,000 soft tissue sarcomas diagnosed in the United States each year.

Pathogenic noncoding variants in the neurofibromatosis and schwannomatosis predisposition genes
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), type 2 (NF2), and schwannomatosis are a group of autosomal dominant disorders that predispose to the development of nerve sheath tumors. Pathogenic variants (PVs) that cause NF1 and NF2 are located in the NF1 and NF2 loci,

An Update on the Ophthalmologic Features in the Phakomatoses
Neurofibromatosis type 1, tuberous sclerosis complex, and Von Hippel-Lindau disease, historically classified as the phakomatoses, are hereditary multisystem disorders characterized by the presence of hamartoma, which carry the risk of malignant ...

Cancer-independent somatic mutation of the wild-type NF1 allele in normal tissues in neurofibromatosis type 1 [PDF]
Cancer predisposition syndromes mediated by recessive cancer genes generate tumors via somatic variants (second hits) in the unaffected allele. Second hits may or may not be sufficient for neoplastic transformation.

Human MLH1 deficiency predisposes to hematological malignancy and neurofibromatosis type 1 [PDF]
PubMedID: 9927033Heterozygous germ-line mutations in the DNA mismatch repair genes lead to hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer. The disease susceptibility of individuals who constitutionally lack both wild-type alleles is unknown.

The neurofibromatosis type 1 gene and its protein product, neurofibromin [PDF]
Von Recklinghausen neurofibromatosis, or neurofibromatosis type 1 (NFI), affects approximately 1 in 3500 individuals of all ethnic backgrounds. It is inherited as an autosomal dominant disease and is manifested clinically by abnormalities that predominantly affect tissues which derive from the neural crest (Riccardi, 1981,199l; Riccardi and Eichner ...
