Abstract

We report a 20-year-old man with neurofibromatosis type 1 presenting with frequent episodes of suprapubic pain. The episodes started 6 months ago, occurred 1 h a day, and were not related to urination. A prostate-sparing cystectomy with orthotopic diversion was performed. Histopathological assessment of the specimen confirmed bladder plexiform neurofibromatosis.<br /> (© 2023 The Authors. Clinical Case Reports published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd.)
