Epithelioid sarcoma associated with neurofibromatosis type I [PDF]
Archives of Craniofacial Surgery, 2020 In general, patients with neurofibromatosis type I have a higher risk than those with other types of neurofibromatosis of developing soft-tissue sarcomas related to the nervous system. We here present a 42-year-old man with neurofibromatosis type I who developed a protruding mass over only 2 weeks.
