Department of Urology, Zenshyukai Hospital.

A 47-year-old female was admitted to our hospital complaining of macrohematuria. The patient had a history of von Recklinghausen's disease. Her skin showed multiple cafe-au-lait spots and neurofibromatosis. Thorough examinations were done. Urine cytology was positive. Intravenous pyelography and cystography demonstrated an irregular wall of the bladder. A computerized tomographic scan demonstrated a 7 cm nodular mass. Cystoscopy revealed a papillary tumor on the right lateral and anterior wall of the bladder. She was diagnosed as having a bladder tumor in von Recklinghausen's neurofibromatosis. Total cystectomy was performed. Histopathological diagnosis was transitional cell carcinoma with squamous cell carcinoma (Grade III, pT3N2N0). Fifty three cases of von Recklinghausen's disease in the literature were accompanied with malignancy.

D009456 Neurofibromatosis 1 An autosomal dominant inherited disorder (with a high frequency of spontaneous mutations) that features developmental changes in the nervous system, muscles, bones, and skin, most notably in tissue derived from the embryonic NEURAL CREST. Multiple hyperpigmented skin lesions and subcutaneous tumors are the hallmark of this disease. Peripheral and central nervous system neoplasms occur frequently, especially OPTIC NERVE GLIOMA and NEUROFIBROSARCOMA. NF1 is caused by mutations which inactivate the NF1 gene (GENES, NEUROFIBROMATOSIS 1) on chromosome 17q. The incidence of learning disabilities is also elevated in this condition. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, pp1014-18) There is overlap of clinical features with NOONAN SYNDROME in a syndrome called neurofibromatosis-Noonan syndrome. Both the PTPN11 and NF1 gene products are involved in the SIGNAL TRANSDUCTION pathway of Ras (RAS PROTEINS).
