Neurofibromatosis (NF) refers to a number of inherited conditions that are clinically and genetically distinct and carry a high risk of tumor formation particularly in the brain. Neurofibromatosis is an autosomal dominant disorder which means only one copy of the affected gene is needed for the disorder to develop.
