Neurofibromatosis (NF) type I is a genetic disorder caused by a mutation of the NF type I gene. This disease is associated with a variety of skeletal manifestations. In this article, we report a 33-year-old female patient with a known history of von Recklinghausen's disease and inflammatory right buttock pain. Diagnostic imaging pointed out unilateral sacroiliitis possibly of a septic origin. Sacroiliac biopsy showed histological patterns consistent with NF. This case report summarizes an exceptional localization of NF mimicking the imaging of infectious sacroiliitis.
I型神经纤维瘤病(NF)是一种由I型神经纤维瘤基因突变引起的遗传性疾病。这种疾病与多种骨骼表现相关。在本文中,我们报告了一名33岁女性患者,她有冯雷克林霍增氏病病史且右臀部疼痛。诊断性影像学检查指出可能为感染性起源的单侧骶髂关节炎。骶髂关节活检显示组织学模式与NF一致。本病例报告总结了NF的一种特殊定位,其影像学表现类似感染性骶髂关节炎。
