  • Title: Neurofibroma of the larynx in a child.
    Author: Cohen SR, Landing BH, Isaacs H.
    Journal: Ann Otol Rhinol Laryngol Suppl; 1978; 87(5 Pt 2 Suppl 52):29-31. PubMed ID: 103479.
    Abstract:
    Laryngeal obstruction due to neurofibromatosis in a girl with von Recklinghausen's disease first occurred in the neonatal period, and recurred by age seven years. She has done well for four years following laryngofissure surgery. Pharyngeal and laryngeal neurofibromatosis are rare manifestations of von Recklinghausen's disease. The dominant hereditary pattern of this disease requires that the condition be considered when respiratory distress occurs in the child of an affected parent, whether or not skin tumors or other features are present.
