| description | Neurofibromatosis (NF) is a genetically transmitted autosomal dominant disorder with variable penetrance and about 50% of cases representing new mutations. It is progressive in nature and one of its unique feature is the diversity of clinical expression from one patent to another and even within a family. The disease is often characterized by complex and multicellular neurofibroma. It may also lead to different complications throughout the life of an affected individual. We report a case of NF involving alveolus of maxilla and mandible causing expansion of the buccal and lingual cortical plates in a 10-year-old girl |
