Abstract
Vascular changes in neurofibromatosis are most commonly described in the renal arteries. Children (2) with neurofibromatosis and cerebral vascular occlusive changes demonstrated by cerebral angiography are reported. Although focal neurological findings in children with neurofibromatosis are often due to tumors, the sudden development of neurological symptoms in such cases should alert pediatricians to the possibility of cerebral vascular disease.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
