description Neurofibromatosis is a rare genetic disorder that typically affects the nerves and causes benign tumors. It also affects different parts of the body, including the bone, skin, and genitourinary system. We report a case of a 6-year-old girl medically free who was referred to our institute with clitoromegaly and multiple café au lait spots on the skin. Clitoral mass excision was performed, and histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of clitoral plexiform neurofibroma as a primary presentation of Neurofibromatosis type I.
