An autosomal dominant inherited disorder (with a high frequency of spontaneous mutations) that features developmental changes in the nervous system, muscles, bones, and skin, most notably in tissue derived from the embryonic NEURAL CREST. Multiple hyperpigmented skin lesions and subcutaneous tumors are the hallmark of this disease. Peripheral and central nervous system neoplasms occur frequently, especially OPTIC NERVE GLIOMA and NEUROFIBROSARCOMA. NF1 is caused by mutations which inactivate the NF1 gene (GENES, NEUROFIBROMATOSIS 1) on chromosome 17q. The incidence of learning disabilities is also elevated in this condition. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, pp1014-18) There is overlap of clinical features with NOONAN SYNDROME in a syndrome called neurofibromatosis-Noonan syndrome. Both the PTPN11 and NF1 gene products are involved in the SIGNAL TRANSDUCTION pathway of Ras (RAS PROTEINS).
Light brown pigmented macules associated with NEUROFIBROMATOSIS and Albright's syndrome (see FIBROUS DYSPLASIA, POLYOSTOTIC).

Spinal neurofibromatosis without cafe-au-lait macules in two families with null mutations of the NF1 gene. (1/48)

Spinal neurofibromatosis (SNF) is considered to be an alternative form of neurofibromatosis, showing multiple spinal tumors and cafe-au-lait macules. Involvement of the neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) locus has been demonstrated, by linkage analysis, for three families with SNF. In one of them, a cosegregating frameshift mutation in exon 46 of the NF1 gene was identified. In the present study, we report four individuals from two families who carry NF1 null mutations that would be expected to cause NF1. Three patients have multiple spinal tumors and no cafe-au-lait macules, and the fourth has no clinical signs of NF1. In the first family, a missense mutation (Leu2067Pro) in NF1 exon 33 was found, and, in the second, a splice-site mutation (IVS31-5A-->G) enlarging exon 32 by 4 bp at the 5' end was found. The latter mutation has also been observed in an unrelated patient with classical NF1. Both NF1 mutations cause a reduction in neurofibromin of approximately 50%, with no truncated protein present in the cells. This demonstrates that typical NF1 null mutations can result in a phenotype that is distinct from classical NF1, showing only a small spectrum of the NF1 symptoms, such as multiple spinal tumors, but not completely fitting the current clinical criteria for SNF. We speculate that this phenotype is caused by an unknown modifying gene that compensates for some, but not all, of the effects caused by neurofibromin deficiency.  (+info)

A homozygous germ-line mutation in the human MSH2 gene predisposes to hematological malignancy and multiple cafe-au-lait spots. (2/48)

Individuals with a germ-line mutation in one of the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes are at significant risk for colorectal cancer and other tumors. Three families have previously been reported with individuals homozygous for mutations in the MMR gene MLH1 that are predicted to compromise MMR. These individuals develop hematological malignancies and/or neurofibromatosis type 1 at an early age. Here, in an individual, we demonstrate that a homozygous novel mutation in the MMR gene MSH2 is associated with leukemia and multiple cafe-au-lait spots, a feature of neurofibromatosis type 1. Because the hematological malignancies observed in the individuals homozygous for the loss of MMR are reflective of the lymphomas seen in mice lacking MMR, the mice may provide a useful model for human neoplasia.  (+info)

A case of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in a patient with neurofibromatosis type 1. (3/48)

Neurofibromatosis type 1 is characterized by cutaneous neurofibromas and pigmented lesions of the skin called cafe au lait spots. Although neurofibromatosis type 1 represents a major risk factor for the development of malignancy, especially of nervous system tumors, malignant lymphoma rarely occurs in a patients with neurofibromatosis type 1. Recently, a 77-year-old woman with neurofibromatosis type 1 was diagnosed as non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (diffuse large B cell). She had multiple cafe au lait spots, neurofibromas and right axillary lymph node enlargement. An abdominal CT scan demonstrated a left pelvic mass and para-aortic lymphadenopathy. Because non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma in a neurofibromatosis patient has never been reported in Korea, herein, we describe this case and include a review of the literature.  (+info)

Common hyperpigmentation disorders in adults: Part I. Diagnostic approach, cafe au lait macules, diffuse hyperpigmentation, sun exposure, and phototoxic reactions. (4/48)

The cause of hyperpigmentation usually is traced to the activity and presence of melanocytes. Cafe au lait macules may be solitary benign findings or may indicate the presence of neurofibromatosis with its associated complications. Diffuse hyperpigmentation should prompt a search for offending medications or systemic diseases such as hemochromatosis, hyperthyroidism, and Addison's disease. In these instances, the hyperpigmentation may be ameliorated by discontinuing offending medications, performing serial phlebotomy in patients with hemochromatosis, instituting cause-specific treatments in patients with hyperthyroidism, and replacing deficient glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids in patients with Addison's disease. Cosmetic treatment with bleaching agents or lasers can be used to decrease pigmentation of ephelides (freckles) and lentigines.  (+info)

Cafe au lait has hue of its own. (5/48)

Segmental pigmentation disorder is a pigmentation disorder (hypo- or hyperpigmentation) first described some 20 years ago. It appears early in life, is segmental, and usually has a sharp border in the midline. It can be confused clinically and histologically with several pigmentary disorders, especially with giant or segmental cafe-au-lait macules. The purpose of this article is to promote, revive, and refresh this somewhat neglected entity, and to further subdivide it into two types: segmental pigmentation disorder simplex and segmental cafe-au-lait. We illustrate our contention with case reports.  (+info)

The use of lasers and intense pulsed light sources for the treatment of pigmentary lesions. (6/48)

Lasers and intense pulsed light sources are frequently used for the treatment of pigmented lesions, and the appropriate selection of devices for different lesions is vital to achieving satisfactory clinical outcomes. In dark-skinned patients, the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation is of particular importance. In general, long-pulse laser and intense pulsed light sources can be effective with a low risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) when used for the treatment of lentigines. However, for dermal pigmentation and tattoo, Q-switched lasers are effective, with a lower risk of complications. In the removal of melanocytic nevi, a combined approach with a long-pulse pigmented laser and a Q-switched laser is particularly applicable.  (+info)

Autoimmune haemolysis as an unusual cause of anaemia in von Recklinghausen's disease. (7/48)

Von Recklinghausen's disease, now classified as neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF-1), is a relatively frequent autosomal dominant disorder and has clinical manifestations, such as cafe-au-lait spots, freckling, generalised cutaneus neurofibroma, Lisch nodules, short stature, optic glioma and central nervous system tumours. In adults, anaemia in the course of NF-1 is usually due to gastrointestinal tumour bleeding. Association of NF-1 and autoimmune haemolytic anaemia is unusual. Here, we report a 48-year-old woman with NF-1 presenting as autoimmune haemolytic anaemia. We also reviewed the literature about the association of NF-1 and autoimmune diseases.  (+info)

The use of lasers in the pediatric population. (8/48)

Over the past 2 decades, there have been numerous advances in laser therapy of birth-marks in the pediatric population. Concerns regarding efficacy, overall benefit, and side-effects linger. We present our opinion, based upon decades of clinical experience, on the role of lasers to treat port wine stains, superficial hemangiomas, and cafe au lait macules in children.  (+info)

Neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1) is a genetic disorder that affects the development and growth of nerve tissue. It's also known as von Recklinghausen disease. NF1 is characterized by the growth of non-cancerous tumors on the nerves, as well as skin and bone abnormalities.

The symptoms of Neurofibromatosis 1 can vary widely, even among members of the same family. Some common features include:

* Multiple café au lait spots (flat, light brown patches on the skin)
* Freckles in the underarms and groin area
* Benign growths on or under the skin called neurofibromas
* Larger, more complex tumors called plexiform neurofibromas
* Optic gliomas (tumors that form on the optic nerve)
* Distinctive bone abnormalities, such as a curved spine (scoliosis) or an enlarged head (macrocephaly)
* Learning disabilities and behavioral problems

Neurofibromatosis 1 is caused by mutations in the NF1 gene, which provides instructions for making a protein called neurofibromin. This protein helps regulate cell growth and division. When the NF1 gene is mutated, the production of neurofibromin is reduced or absent, leading to uncontrolled cell growth and the development of tumors.

NF1 is an autosomal dominant disorder, which means that a person has a 50% chance of inheriting the mutated gene from an affected parent. However, about half of all cases are the result of new mutations in the NF1 gene, and occur in people with no family history of the disorder.

There is currently no cure for Neurofibromatosis 1, but treatments are available to manage the symptoms and complications of the disease. These may include medications to control pain or reduce the size of tumors, surgery to remove tumors or correct bone abnormalities, and physical therapy to improve mobility and strength. Regular monitoring by a healthcare team experienced in treating Neurofibromatosis 1 is also important to detect any changes in the condition and provide appropriate care.

Café-au-lait spots are light to dark brown, flat patches on the skin that are benign and usually harmless. The term "café-au-lait" means "coffee with milk," which describes the color of these spots. They can vary in size from a few millimeters to several centimeters in diameter and can appear anywhere on the body, although they are most commonly found on the trunk and buttocks.

While café-au-lait spots are common and can occur in up to 20% of the general population, having multiple (more than six) such spots, especially if they are large or present at birth, may be a sign of an underlying medical condition, such as neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), a genetic disorder that affects the growth and development of nerve tissue.

Therefore, it is essential to monitor café-au-lait spots and report any changes or concerns to a healthcare provider.

I'm sorry for any confusion, but "group structure" is not a commonly used medical term or concept. The term "group structure" may be used in various contexts such as group therapy, support groups, or organizational structures within healthcare settings. However, it does not have a specific medical definition that applies universally.

In the context of group therapy or support groups, "group structure" might refer to the rules, roles, and dynamics that govern how the group functions and interacts. This can include aspects such as:

* Group size
* Frequency and duration of meetings
* Leadership style (e.g., leader-led vs. peer-led)
* Rules for participation and confidentiality
* Roles assumed by individual members
* Communication norms within the group

If you're referring to a different context or need more specific information, please provide additional details so I can give a more accurate response.
