Immunological and clinical surveillance in Recklinghausen's neurofibromatosis (NF1)

Neurofibromatosis evolution is described in relation to the factors that may favour its expansion and immune modifications. NF1 monitorization should employ periodic clinical and immune surveillance. Such an approach would allow the application of immunomodulating treatment (e.g. adapted therapy) only when indicated, thereby reducing its duration and potentiating its efficacy.
