[Voluminous plexiform neurofibromas of the neck region in neurofibromatosis 1].

AIM. To present the clinic, imaging and evolutive characteristics of a series of patients with neurofibromatosis 1 with voluminous plexiform neurofibromas in the neck (VPNFN) during childhood. PATIENTS AND METHODS.

Significance of tuber size for complications of tuberous sclerosis complex.

Introduction: Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is one of the most frequent neurocutaneous disorders. Cortical tubers are the most common pathological changes in TSC and they are directly related to the disease's main clinical manifestations: seizures, mental retardation, and autistic behaviour.

Objective: The aim of this study is to establish a correlation between tuber size and the severity of clinical features in TSC.

[Corpus callosum tumor as the presenting symptom of neurofibromatosis type 1 in a patient and literature review].

Introduction: Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is one of the most frequent neurocutaneous syndromes. NF1 can be associated with intracranial tumors in any location, but only rarely in the corpus callosum.

Aims: To describe a case of NF1 presenting as a tumor of the corpus callosum and to carry out a review of the incidence of the tumors of corpus callosum in our series and in the literature.

Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) associated with tumor of the corpus callosum.

Introduction: Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), one of the most common neurocutaneous disorders, is a multisystemic disease associated with tumors in any organ of the body, especially in the central nervous system and also the peripheral nervous system. Pilocytic astrocytomas have been described in almost all intracranial regions in patients with NF1. However, only a few patients with NF1 and tumor of the corpus callosum have been reported to date.
