Abstract

Neurofibromatosis type 1 is a common autosomal dominant condition caused by heterozygous mutations of the NF1 gene.

Vascular abnormalities is a common complication of NF1 and may lead to a high morbidity and mortality. The new findings of vascular abnormalities NF1were reviewed in this paper.
