Typically diagnosed in early childhood, #Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a rare, progressive, genetic condition that involves the development of nonmalignant tumours that may affect the brain, spinal cord and nerves.

Neurofibromatosis is a condition that so many of our friends and family are affected by, but that remains widely misunderstand and too often invisible. It is under-recognised and under-resourced in our health system. I spoke to the Minister yesterday about the need for a Neurofibromatosis Centre here in Ireland so that those with the condition have equal access to care. @NfIreland – at Ireland
