Scoliosis in Neurofibromatosis Type 1 on Whole-Body Magnetic Resonance Imaging: Frequency and Association With Intraspinal and Paraspinal Tumors

Conclusions This study found no association between the presence of locoregional spinal tumors and scoliosis in NF1 patients. This work adds to the body of knowledge of scoliosis in NF1 patients and infers that presence of scoliosis should not mandate immediate search for locoregional spinal tumors.
