Segmental neurofibromatosis with Lisch nodules.

Neurofibromatosis (NF) is an inherited neuroectodermal abnormality that primarily affects the growth of neural tissues, and Riccardi classified it into eight types. Segmental neurofibromatosis, which is a rare form of neurofibromatosis, is classified as type 5. We report a case for very unusual presentation of segmental NF with unilateral lisch nodules and uncommon sites involving the scalp. Moreover, we could find only one case report of segmental NF with lisch nodules in the literature and could not find any case report involving the scalp.
