- W2137593886 abstract "ABSTRACT: Background: To date, few pediatric series of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF-1) have been described in the literature even though it is the most frequently encountered phakomatosis. Methods: We reviewed 987 charts of pediatric patients with a presumptive diagnosis of NF-1 who were evaluated at Ste-Justine hospital from January 1, 1991 to July 31, 2002. Patients who presented with two or more cardinal criteria were diagnosed with NF-1. Clinical and laboratory data were retrospectively collected, including: demographics, neuroimaging and presence or absence of associated symptoms or signs of NF-1. Results: A total of 279 patients were diagnosed with NF-1. The mean age at diagnosis was 3.4 years. Ninety-nine percent of the patients had café au lait spots and 47% had a first degree relative with NF-1. Almost 60 percent (59.6%) of those seen by an ophthalmologist had Lisch nodules. Optic glioma was found in in 14.7%, cutaneous neurofibromas in 38.4%, plexiform neurofibromas in 24.7%, neurofibrosarcoma in 1.8%, learning disabilities in 39%, attention deficit disorder in 40.5%, osseous dysplasias in 7.2%, pseudoarthrosis in 3.6%, precocious puberty in 3.2% and short stature in 17.9%. Magnetic resonance, when performed, showed hyperintense T2 lesions in 87.1% of cases. The mean period of follow-up was 7.4 years. Conclusion: Neurofibromatosis type 1 is a multisystemic disorder associated with increased risk of malignancy. It can be diagnosed at a very young age and clinical follow-up is advised. To our knowledge, this is the largest single center study of NF-1 in a pediatric population." @default.
