Neurofibromatosis type I (NF-1) is a complex multi-system human disorder caused by the mutation of a gene on chromosome 17 that is responsible for production of a protein, called neurofibromin, which is needed for normal function in many human cell types.
Neurofibromatosis 是一种导致神经系统和皮肤出现肿瘤的疾病。1 型为显性遗传,表现为 neurofibromas、café‑au‑lait spots、freckling 和 optic gliomas 等症状。诊断主要依据临床表现。2 型的特征是 bilateral vestibular schwannomas (VS) 和 meningiomas,同样为显性遗传。管理措施包括对两型 Neurofibromatosis 进行定期随访和必要的医学治疗。 Neurofibromatosis is a neurocutaneous disorder characterized by tumors in the nervous system and skin. Neurofibromatosis types 1 and 2 are the most common and are distinct entities. Neurofibromatosis type 1, or von Recklinghausen disease, is an autosomal dominant disease. Neurofibromatosis type 1 presents with neurofibromas, cafe-au-lait macules, freckling, and optic gliomas. It is a clinical diagnosis. Neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) is a disease characterized by bilateral vestibular schwannomas (VS) and meningiomas. It has an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern. Treatment for neurofibromatosis types 1 and 2 is clinical monitoring and medical intervention when appropriate.
常见症状包括眼部有色部分出现棕红色斑点,即 Lisch 结节,以及神经纤维瘤。患者还可能出现脊柱侧弯(脊柱弯曲)、学习障碍、视力障碍、精神障碍、多发咖啡斑和癫痫等。
