Abstract

NF2 is an autosomal dominant disorder with neuroectodermal dysplasia. Most patients present with characteristic clinical tumors during or beyond the adolescent age group. The diagnosis is mainly clinical. Vasculopathy is rarely associated with NF2. Vascular complication as the presenting symptom in NF-2 is unknown. We report a case of a 2-year-old child with no prior family history of neurofibromatosis presenting with ataxia and brain-stem stroke.
