Are Lisch Nodules an Ocular Marker of the Neurofibromatosis Gene in Otherwise Unaffected Family Members

Abstract
A male patient with classical neurofibromatosis is reported. Examination of the other family members revealed 2 patients with solitary cutaneous neurofibromas and 2 with one or more Lisch nodules without other cutaneous or systemic signs of neurofibromatosis. This suggests that Lisch nodules can be a marker for the neurofibromatosis gene in otherwise unaffected family members.
