Abstract

The criteria for clinical diagnosis of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) are not sensitive in young children. Recognition is easier when one of their parents has been diagnosed with this condition, and the causal mutation is known. We present a case of a girl with isolated café-au-lait spots, whose father was diagnosed with NF1. However, both were found to carry different de novo mutations in the NF1 gene. This possibility has significant implications for the diagnostic process and genetic counseling.

一个 1 型神经纤维瘤病家族中 NF1 基因的不同基因突变。

临床诊断 1 型神经纤维瘤病 (NF1) 的标准对幼儿并不敏感。如果父母中的一方已被确诊患有此病，且已知致病基因突变，则更容易确诊。我们介绍了一例患有孤立性咖啡色斑的女孩，她的父亲被诊断患有 NF1。然而，两人都被发现携带不同的 NF1 基因新突变。这种可能性对诊断过程和遗传咨询具有重要意义。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
