Multiple Cerebral Aneurysms Associated With Neurofibromatosis Type 1

Multiple Cerebral Aneurysms Associated With Neurofibromatosis Type 1, Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a rare disease with an incidence of approximately one in every 3000 births. NF1 is mainly recognized as a tumor suppressor. Vasculopathy in NF1 is well described in the literature, but the association between NF1 and cerebral aneurysm has not been determined. We report a case of a 67-year-old female with NF1 accompanied by 8 cerebral aneurysms., Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a rare disease with an incidence of approximately one in every 3000 births. NF1 is mainly recognized as a tumor suppressor. Vasculopathy in NF1 is well described in the literature, but the association between NF1 and cerebral aneurysm has not been determined. We report a case of a 67-year-old female with NF1 accompanied by 8 cerebral aneurysms. Two of the patient's unruptured aneurysms, the large distal anterior cerebral artery (ACA) aneurysm and anterior communicating artery aneurysm, were initially treated with microsurgical clipping., admin,
