Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a hereditary, progressive and unpredictable disease, which can involve many organs. Benign and malignant tumors arise due to unrestrained cell division and cell growth. Recognizing the symptoms of these tumors and using the correct diagnostics is of great importance. In this clinical lesson we show the disease course of 3 patients with NF1. In all 3, the disease course was complicated by a symptomatic tumor. Characteristic in these patients is the relatively long interval between the onset of symptoms and the final tumor diagnosis. In this clinical lesson we examine the causes of this in more detail and we emphasize the importance of the specific knowledge within the Dutch national NF1 care network.
