Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), a common autosomal dominant neurogenetic disorder affecting 1 in 4000 individuals worldwide, results from functional inactivation of the 17q11.2-located NF1 gene. Plexiform neurofibroma (PNF) is a congenital benign tumour present in 30-50% of NF1 patients, which in ab

## Communicated by Michael Goossens A total of 500 unselected unrelated neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1) patients were screened for deletions of the NF1 gene. After excluding 67 patients with known intragenic NF1 mutations, the remaining 433 were genotyped using six intragenic and one distal microsatellit
