C'est une affection très fréquente dans les pays tropicaux notamment chez les enfants jouant dans le sable et chez les voyageurs.

We report three cases of neurofibromatosis type 1 disease with literature review, collected in the department of neurology and internal medicine from National Hospital of Niamey (HNN). Two of them were men and the first signs were noted by the mother at the birth in 2 cases. Only one case of consanguinity was observed. Clinically, light brown spots on the skin, neurofibromas, Lisch nodules were constantly observed. Histopathological's exam confirmed neurofibromas. Moreover, cutaneous and ophthalmological manifestations lead to the diagnostic. Two cases of orthopedic complications were observed: one scoliosis and one Congenital dysplasia of the long bones.
