Abstrakt: Neurofibromatosis type I patients usually present themselves with multiple neurofibromas and cafe-au-lait spots. We report a case with an intracerebral haemorrhage as an uncommon feature of the disease. The clinical, radiological, neurosurgical and histological features of this case are discussed and a review of the literature on the broad spectrum of neurofibromatosis is presented. The etiological factors and clinical consequences of this and other cerebrovascular features are briefly discussed.
