ABSTRACT

Nos pacientes com neurofibromatose tipo 1 (NF1), o número de neurofibromas varia grandemente de pessoa para pessoa, mesmo em casos intrafamiliares, com a mesma mutação na linhagem germinativa no gene NF1. Além das mutações nesse gene, provavelmente fatores adicionais são importantes no desenvolvimento ou no crescimento dos neurofibromas. O objetivo deste artigo é revisar a literatura sobre o papel dos hormônios no desenvolvimento e crescimento dos neurofibromas e a segurança da terapia hormonal nos pacientes com NF1


In patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), the number of neurofibromas varies greatly from person to person, even in intrafamilial cases, with the same germline mutation in the NF1 gene. In addition to the mutations in this gene, it is likely that additional factors are important in neurofibroma development or growth. The purpose of this article is to review the literature on the role of hormones in the development and growth of neurofibromas and the safety of hormonal therapy in patients with NF1
