Poliosis and Neurofibromatosis Type 1: Two Familiar Cases and Review of the Literature.

Iria Neri1, Giulia Liberati1, Bianca Maria Piraccini1, Annalisa Patrizi1.   

Abstract

Two brothers were referred to our clinic for reevaluation of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). Both brothers presented a peculiarity that is not so common in NF1: poliosis overlying plexiform neurofibromas on the scalp. Poliosis overlying plexiform neurofibromas is rarely reported in the literature. The peculiarity of our cases is the familiarity and the presence of poliosis in the same location.
