Abstract
Urinary tract involvement in neurofibromatosis is rare. We found 51 cases documented in the literature, the majority of these (n = 31) were children. More than half of these (n = 18) developed upper urinary tract obstruction. A report is given of a 10-month-old boy with neurofibromatosis of the bladder. Treatment consisted in radical surgery with cystoprostatectomy and uretero-transureterocutaneostomy. Follow-up of 10 years presents a good result. The different modalities of treatment are reviewed in the literature.Entities:
