Abstract

We report a case of plexiform neurofibroma of the external genitalia and perineum in a 11-year-old girl with no family history of this disease. The patient was diagnosed with neurofibromatosis type 1 upon admission to the clinic. Surgery was performed by a team of a pediatric surgeon and gynecologist after the examination. The postoperative period was uneventful. No signs of neurofibroma recurrence were observed 2 years postoperatively. The description of the diagnostic and treatment stages in this case resulting from a primary genetic mutation is of interest to pediatricians and pediatric surgeons. Key words: neurofibromatosis, perineum, child
