[Congenital pseudarthrosis of the forearm in a neurofibromatosis patient: case report and review of the literature].

We report a case of congenital pseudarthrosis of the forearm associated with neurofibromatosis type 1 which was treated by free vascularized periosteal flap transplant and repeated bone grafting. The young female patient recovered good hand and forearm function. A review of the literature revealed the rare occurrence of this disease (approximately 100 cases reported to date), which probably explains the wide variety of surgical proposals.
