Abstract
Von Recklinghausen Neurofibromatosis is a fairly common disorder characterized with cafe au lait spots of the skin and neurofibromas of the skin and viscera. Neurofibromas can be observed throughout the gastrointestinal tract and lead to various complications. These neurofibromas can be diagnosed with immunohistochemical studies in order to exclude other type of tumors. We document clinical and pathological aspects of a patient with Von Recklinghausen Neurofibromatosis presented with jejunojejunal intussuception due to a stromal tümör with neural differentiation.
