Abstract

Neurofibromatosis 1 is a multisystem disorder associated with substantial clinical variability. During childhood, few neurofibromas and café au lait spots may be the only manifest symptoms, making correct and timely diagnosis difficult. Herein we describe the clinical usefulness of ultrasound examination in identifying neurofibromas.
