Abstract

Neurofibromatosis typel (NF I) is a neuro-cutaneous skeletal disorder which is transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait or which may represent neomutation. It is characterized by a variety of clinical manifestations including multiple neurofibromas, osseous dysplasias, neurologic and ophthalmic abnormalities. Here we report a rare case of NFI without any family history with oro-facial manifestations.
