Neurofibromatosis (NF) is a group of hereditary neurocutaneous cancer syndromes that are associated with tumors of the central and peripheral nervous systems. There are 3 subtypes: Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), Neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2), and Schwannomatosis.
NF1, the most representative with 96% of all cases, also known as Von Recklinghausen disease, is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner, due to a mutation in the NF1 gene
