Peripheral nerve sheath tumors such as neurofibroma, comprise 5% of all benign soft tissue tumors and usually occur due to an underlying neurofibromatosis.

Plexiform neurofibromas represent an uncommon variant (30%) of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF-1) in which neurofibromas arise from multiple nerves as bulging and deforming masses involving also connective tissue and skin folds.We report a rare case of a 30-year-old man who presented with a progressive facial deformity that began in early childhood.

A case report of a 4-year-old girl with neurofibromatosis type 1
Neurofibromatosis type 1 is a rare genetic disorder, which is a benign nerve tumor resulting from aberrant growth of the cells of nerve sheath. NF1 patients were associated with multisystem involvement, characterized by neurofibroma, of which 50% were ...

Individuals with neurofibromatosis type 1 develop rat sarcoma virus (RAS)–mitogen-activated protein kinase–mitogen-activated and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (RAS-MAPK-MEK)–driven nerve tumors called neurofibromas.

PURPOSE Plexiform neurofibromas (PNF) are peripheral nerve sheath tumors that cause significant morbidity in persons with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), yet treatment options remain limited.

Plexiform neurofibromas occurring in approximately 20–50% of all neurofibromatosis type-1 (NF1) cases are histologically benign tumors, but they can be fatal due to compression of vital structures or transformation to malignant sarcomas or malignant ...

Multiple Nf1 Schwann cell populations reprogram the plexiform neurofibroma tumor microenvironment
To define alterations early in tumor formation, we studied nerve tumors in neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1), a tumor predisposition syndrome. Affected individuals develop neurofibromas, benign tumors driven by NF1 loss in Schwann cells (SCs).
