    Background and Objectives Internal neurofibromas, including plexiform neurofibromas (PNF), can cause significant morbidity in patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). PNF growth is most pronounced in children and young adults, with more rapid growth thought to occur in a subset of PNF termed distinct nodular lesions (DNL). Growth behavior of internal neurofibromas and DNL in older adults is…

    A blood test combined with imaging tests detected tumors—some at an early stage—in women without a history of cancer or any symptoms, a recent study showed. The liquid biopsy, called CancerSEEK, also mistakenly indicated some women had cancer when additional testing determined they did not.
