If left untreated, [#]% of patients with [disease name] may progress to develop [manifestation 1], [manifestation 2], and [manifestation 3].

'''[[Neurofibromatosis type 1|Neurofibromatosis Type 1]]''' manifestations vary widely among patients , from individuals with absent [[symptoms]] to rapidly progressive disorders. The most common complication of [[neurofibromatosis type 1]] is [[disfigurement]] due to skin lesions. [[Prognosis]] will depend on the number of [[commorbidities]], but it is usually moderately good. [[Life expectancy]] is usually reduced by 8-12 years, being [[Cancer|malignant tumors]] the most common cause of death.


Common complications of [disease name] include [complication 1], [complication 2], and [complication 3].

Overview

Neurofibromatosis Type 1 manifestations vary widely among patients , from individuals with absent symptoms to rapidly progressive disorders. The most common complication of neurofibromatosis type 1 is disfigurement due to skin lesions. Prognosis will depend on the number of commorbidities, but it is usually moderately good. Life expectancy is usually reduced by 8-12 years, being malignant tumors the most common cause of death.

Prognosis

  • Depending on the extent of the disease progression and the time of diagnosis, the prognosis may vary. However, the prognosis is generally regarded as moderately good.
  • Quality of life is lower in children and adults with neurofibromatosis type 1, due to the several commorbidities and complications, many times having an incapacitating depression.[12]
  • Life expectancy in patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 is usually reduced 8-21 years from the normal population.[13]
  • The most common cause of death in these type of patients is due to malignant neoplasm.[13][14][15][16][17][18]
