The Pathoetiology of Neurofibromatosis 1 [PDF]
Although a mutation in the NF1 gene is the only factor required to initiate the neurocutaneous-skeletal neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1) syndrome, the pathoetiology of the multiple manifestations of this disease in different organ systems seems increasingly complex.

Neurofibromatosis (NF) 1 and 2 are multisystem disorders associated with a variety of neoplastic and non‐neoplastic manifestations that typically progress in severity during the lifetime of the affected patient. The importance of appropriately diagnosing these disorders stems from the fact that the natural history of an associated neoplasm, such as a ...
