A spinal cord compression syndrome revealing neurofibromatosis type 1: A case report
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), formerly known as von Recklinghausen disease is an autosomal dominant disease with multisystem involvement. In the peripheral nervous system, it leads to the development of benign tumors from the tissue of the spinal or cranial nerve sheaths, known as “neurofibromas.”...

| description | Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), formerly known as von Recklinghausen disease is an autosomal dominant disease with multisystem involvement. In the peripheral nervous system, it leads to the development of benign tumors from the tissue of the spinal or cranial nerve sheaths, known as “neurofibromas.” We report the case of a 40-year-old patient with spinal cord compression syndrome in whom spinal MRI revealed cervical, dorsal and lumbosacral neurofibromas revealing neurofibromatosis type 1. |
