Von Reklinghausen's Disease Associated with Neurofibrosarcoma in Mediastinum
초록
Neurofibromatosis [Von Recklinghausen`s disease] is a rare Mendelian dominant disease, which shows multiple generalized symptoms and signs at various sites [Ex Skin, Bone, Nerve, Endocrine, Mediastinum rarely Lung, etc.]. We experienced one case of neurofibromatosis which has typical skin lesions [cafe-au-lait, multiple nodules, axillary freckling] with neurofibrosarcoma [malignant change from mediastinal lesion]. Patient was admitted our department because of recently developed severe dyspnea which was probably due to main tracheal compression by mediastinal neurofibrosarcoma. After successful removal of mediastinal mass dyspnea disappeared completely. Patient`s postoperative course was uneventful, and the patient was discharged 14 days after operation.
