description Neurofibromatosis type 1 is a disorder characterized by tumors of autonomic peripheral nerve sheaths. Visceral involvement is infrequent, with genitourinary involvement being rarer. Presented here is a case of a 52-year-old male who presented with an acute renal injury secondary to renal tract obstruction. Transurethral resection of the enlarged prostate demonstrated neurofibromatosis with no signs of malignant transformation.
