Hi.
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a multisystem genetic disorder.
Mostly have first-degree relative (eg, mother, father, sister, brother) with NF1.
Its characteristics are café-au-lait spots or hyperpigmented macules, axillary or inguinal freckles, neurofibromas or plexiform neurofibroma, optic nerve glioma, iris hamartomas, sphenoid dysplasia or typical long-bone abnormalities such as pseudarthrosis.
There is no cure for neurofibromatosis.
Patients should be routinely monitored for complications.
Annual examinations should include the following-assessment of skin, blood pressure, complete eye examination, skeletal system examination.
If u have any other query, then ask.
Laser technology can be used for nonsurgical removal of small, cutaneous neurofibromas.
Take care.
