Résumé

The neurofibromatoses are a group of genetic disorders that cause development of nervous system tumors as well as various other tumor and systemic manifestations. Neurofibromatosis type 1 is the most prevalent of these conditions and has the most variable phenotype and highest risk of malignant tumor formation. Neurofibromatosis type 2 has no associated malignant tumors but does carry significant morbidity, including deafness, facial weakness, and physical disability. Schwannomatosis is the least prevalent of these disorders and is characterized primarily by nonvestibular schwannomas and pain.
