    Author: Losty P, Hu C, Quinn F, Fitzgerald RJ.
    Journal: Eur J Pediatr Surg; 1993 Feb; 3(1):57-8. PubMed ID: 8466879.
    Abstract:
    Von Recklinghausen's neurofibromatosis (VRN) is a familial disorder characterised by a generalized neuroectodermal dysplasia--symptomatic involvement of the gastrointestinal tract is rare. We report on our experience with two children who had proven gastrointestinal neurofibromas and highlight the need for careful assessment in children with VRN who develop abdominal pain.
