Abstract:
A case of Von Recklinghausen neurofibromatosis (VRNF) with progression during two pregnancies and obstetrical complications is described to illustrate the effect of pregnancy on VRNF and vice versa. The interaction between VRNF and pregnancy is discussed. The obstetrical complications and progression of VRNF lesions during pregnancy necessitate close follow-up of these patients by neurologist and obstetrician.
