ABSTRACT
Neurofibromatosis type 1 or Von Recklinghausen disease (NF1) is one of the most
common hereditary genetic disorders in human. We present the case of a 59 year
female patient, affected by neurofibromatosis type 1. She has a history of
supracondylar amputation of the lower left limb at age 19 due to elephantiasis,
which caused her total limb deformity. She comes for presenting deformity of her
stump that prevents her from putting on the prosthesis to walk. Complementary procedures were performed and the stent plasty was performed with favorable
evolution. This case is presented by the interest that arises from its singularity in
the specialty of Angiology at "Dr. Carlos J. Finlay" Central Military Hospital, where
the surgical intervention was necessary resulting favorably in the patient's
rehabilitation.
