Overview
Neurofibromatosis 1 and Neurofibromatosis 2 are the most common risk factors for development of neurofibromas.
Risk Factors
Following are the most common risk factors for formation of neurofibromas:
- Neurofibromatosis 1
- Neurofibromatosis 2 (multiple neurofibromas, meningiomas of the brainor spinal cord, and ependymomas of the spinal cord)
