Neurofibromatosis tipo 1 (NF1) y su diagnóstico molecular como estrategia del diagnóstico diferencial y a edades tempranas

Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), is a haploinsufficient and multisystemic disease, caused by inherited or sporadic mutations in the NF1 gene. Its incidence is one in 2,500 to 3,000 individuals, it has an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance, high clinical variability, complete penetrance and age...
