A new presentation of angiopathy in neurofibromatosis type 1.

Neurofibromatosis is a genetic condition characterized by localized over-growth of mesodermal and ectodermal tissues. Neurofibromatosis type 1 is characterized by cutaneous and skeletal abnormalities. Angiopathy is rare. We describe a new presentation of angiopathy in neurofibromatosis type 1. The patient presented with extensive bruising of the right side of her neck together with intra-oral and pharyngeal submucosal haemorrhage. Radiological investigation confirmed that an aneurysm of the right ascending pharyngeal artery had ruptured. This was successfully embolized without complication.
