Pathogenic Neurofibromatosis type 1 gene variants in tumors of non‐NF1 patients and role of R1276
Somatic variants of the neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) gene occur across neoplasms without clinical manifestation of the disease NF1. We identified emerging somatic pathogenic NF1 variants and hotspots, for example, at the arginine finger 1276. Those missense variants provide fundamental information about neurofibromin's role in cancer.

Illustration of the microenvironment factors driving malignant progression in MPNSTs. ABSTRACT Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is characterized by the development of benign plexiform neurofibromas (PNFs). In 10%–15% of patients, these tumors undergo malignant transformation into aggressive malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs).

Management of large dorsal diffuse plexiform neurofibroma
Neurofibromas are considered one of the hallmark signs of neurofibromatosis type 1(NF1). Diffuse plexiform neurofibroma is a congenital NF1-associated tumor, characterized by overgrowth and interference with function of the affected area.
