Challenges in the Management of a Calvarial Defect in an NF1-Patient
Calvaria defects are a relatively unknown aspect of NF1, and no standard treatment exists. Their management requires a personalized approach, considering factors like lesion size, and the potential for multiple interventions throughout the patient's lifetime. Due to their progressive nature and the possibility of additional lesions, long-term follow-up is crucial for effective monitoring and intervention planning.
