A great deal is now known about neurofibromatosis type 1,
particularly as a result of the identification of its causative
gene by positional cloning. Effective treatments for its resulting
cosmetic disfigurement, impaired cognitive performance and even
life-threatening malignancy however sadly remain elusive.
As Dr Korf remarks in his Foreword; 'this book's cogent and
thorough description of neurofibromatosis in children will take its
place alongside other major clinical studies of the disorder. (Dr
North) has tackled some of the more challenging issues, such as the
basis for learning disabilities and the optimal means for early
detection of optic gliomas. Her work provides a guide to the
clinician and stands as a provocative challenge to the
neurofibromatosis research community to further explore the basis
of these problems.'
