Neurofibrosarcoma

Neurofibrosarcoma (NF) is a malignant tumor that develops from neuroglial cells and can occur at any age. It can be either benign or malignant.

The causes of NF are unknown, but there are some risk factors that can increase your chance of developing a tumor. For example, these are genetic mutations associated with neurofibromatosis, as well as exposure to certain chemicals such as arsenic, vinyl chloride and benzene.

Symptoms of NF may include:

– Skin itching
– Pain in muscles and joints
– Edema of the extremities
– Deterioration of vision
- Headache
- Weight loss
- Fatigue

Treatment for NF depends on the stage of the disease and the type of tumor. In some cases, surgical removal of the tumor, radiation therapy, or chemotherapy may be required.

Overall, NF is a serious disease that requires timely treatment. If you have any symptoms associated with NF, see your doctor for diagnosis and treatment.

Neurofibroma (NFS) and neurofibromatosis type 1 (Von Recklinghausen disease) are benign tumors that are caused by the excessive proliferation of neurons in tissue, usually located in the skin or nervous tissue, and repeating their structure. NFS are tumors of various sizes, both hard and soft, either single or multiple, located locally or diffuse in nature. Treatment for NSF depends on its size, location, and the general condition of the patient. Multiple neurofibromas make it difficult to select therapy and often require radical treatment by removing the affected areas followed by plastic replacement.
