Von Recklinghausen's disease with urogenital manifestation.

Thiago F Nunes1, Renato P Costa, Fabio C Navarro.   

Abstract

Neurofibromatosis or Von Recklinghausen's disease is a rare disease that affects the urogenital system in its visceral form. We report on one case where the patient had a recurring mass located in the vesicouterine space that caused irritative urinary symptoms, which was confirmed as uterine cervix neurofibroma following surgery and immunohistochemical study. We stress the importance of a wide resection of such tumors and the need for long-term follow-up due to the high recurrence index and the risk of malignant transformation.
