Plexiform neurofibroma (PN) involvement of the external genitalia in patients with neurofibromatosis type I (NF1) is a rare cause of nonhormonal clitoromegaly. We present a 3-year-old female with known NF1 who presented with clitoromegaly. She was identified with an extensive pelvic mass involving the bladder wall, perineum, labia, clitoris, rectum, and sacral foramina. A partial cystectomy was performed, and histopathology was consistent with PN. She has been initiated on a mitogen activated protein kinase enzyme kinase inhibitor, trametinib, which has been effective in of the bladder mass over 5 months. Additionally, she has experienced clinical response to trematinib with resolution of urinary urgency and frequency since initiating treatment.
I型神经纤维瘤病(NF1)患者的外生殖器出现丛状神经纤维瘤(PN)是导致非激素性阴蒂肥大的罕见原因。我们报告一名3岁已知患有NF1的女性,她出现了阴蒂肥大。经检查发现她有一个广泛的盆腔肿块,累及膀胱壁、会阴、阴唇、阴蒂、直肠和骶孔。进行了部分膀胱切除术,组织病理学检查结果与PN一致。她已开始使用丝裂原活化蛋白激酶激酶抑制剂曲美替尼进行治疗,在5个月的时间里,该药物对膀胱肿块起到了有效的治疗作用。此外,自开始治疗以来,她在使用曲美替尼后出现了临床反应,尿急和尿频症状得到缓解。
