 en Short Report - A Patient with Optic Pathway Glioma, Scoliosis, Chiari Type I Malformation and Syringomyelia : Is it Neurofibromatosis Type 1 ?
A. Chakravarty, A. Bhargava, S. Nandy

Abstract

A 22 years old girl had features of optic pathway glioma, scoliosis, Chiari type 1 malformation and cervical syringomyelia. She had no cutaneous lesions.We considered this combination to be more than coincidental and argue in favour of considering the case as a variant form of Neurofibromatosis type 1. The relevent literature in favour of our contention has been reviewed.
