At this NF Power Hour, Dr. Miriam Bornhorst, a neuro-oncologist at Lurie Children’s Hospital will provide an overview of the various types of tumors associated with Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1), including cutaneous neurofibromas, plexiform neurofibromas, optic gliomas, gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs), glomus tumors, and others. This will include information on how these tumors differ in their characteristics, presentation, and management, and highlight the importance of regular monitoring and multidisciplinary care for individuals with NF1.
