DOI: 10.1093/ced/llac128
Abstract: In previous studies, the protein La-related protein 4B (LARP4B) has not been linked to neurofibroma. The gene sequencing results of our patient suggest that LARP4B may play a role in the growth of neurofibroma without… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/scs.0000000000005079
Abstract: Background: Orbit deformities are usually found in neurofibromatosis type 1 patients, especially those with orbital-periorbital plexiform neurofibroma (OPPN). Unfortunately, current morphometry is complicated and, in some cases, cannot be performed on the deformed orbit due… read more here.
